French President Emmanuel Macron just dropped a tech bombshell: France is set to pour €109 billion into artificial intelligence over the next few years. The massive investment—backed by UAE funds, North American investors, and French companies—aims to make France a global AI powerhouse, rivaling the US’s much-hyped ‘Stargate’ project.
Macron doubled down on open innovation during a TV interview, stating France won’t follow America’s lead in banning Chinese-made AI like DeepSeek. \"We can’t block tech just because of its origin,\" he said, sparking debate about Europe’s role in the AI arms race.
Meanwhile, Paris is gearing up for next month’s AI Action Summit, where 100+ countries and 1,000+ experts will tackle AI’s future. Key topics include AI ethics, job trends, and global governance—think ‘Black Mirror’ meets Davos.
For young professionals and tech enthusiasts, this move signals France’s bid to lead the next digital revolution. Will AI’s future speak French?
