The European Commission set out two strategies to ensure Europe stays ahead, driving adoption in key industries and putting Europe at the forefront of AI-driven science. The Apply AI Strategy sets out how to speed up the use of AI in Europe's key industries and the public sector. The AI in Science Strategy focuses on putting Europe at the forefront of AI-driven research and scientific excellence.

AI is transforming how businesses operate, reshaping public services, and revolutionising science. With these strategies, the Commission is delivering on its AI Continent Action Plan, setting a course to make Europe a global leader in trustworthy AI. Just six years ago Europe had two supercomputers in the global top 10; today it has four and work is ongoing to set up at least 4 to 5 gigafactories. Building on its strong AI infrastructure, as well as Europe's talent, vibrant research and innovation ecosystem and startups, its tradition of collaborative science, high-quality data and world-class research and technology infrastructures, the EU is well positioned to accelerate the use of AI in key sectors and science.
