And he thinks the US will control the energy, chips and computing infrastructure in the future? Sure Europe isn't in a great position at all, but the US'es future leadership isn't all that obvious.
The US is fucked on AI leadership, because we're fucked on manufacturing leadership. It's a fluke of geology we have control of pure enough silicon right now, and that's not likely to be a barrier for long. China is about to eat our lunch in every area of research now that the US has killed funding and chased away the best students. What happened with manufacturing, is about to happen with tech and academia. Europe, India, Japan and Australia will siphon off a little bit, but China is going to be dominant for the next 20 to 50 years most likely. And probably won't be overtaken by the US again.
It won't be next week, but over the next decade China is very much going to be taking the global stage. The US has handed them economic dominance on a silver platter.
Good. Deserved.

What do you think is going to happen in the next 2 years that isn't straight out of a left wing fantasy book?
China is already building their own AI accellerator hardware (I don't want to call something without video output a GPU)
They're building their own ecology of parts and standards and Nvidia isn't gonna be part of it. because the US restricted access, Nvidia didn't get to be the monoculture there, so they're building their own without them.

I mean, I suppose "know your audience". If you're going to the French legislature for money, you pitch accordingly.
"It will be decided in the next two years," Mensch said during a Tuesday hearing on digital sovereignty and AI at France's National Assembly, translated by Business Insider.
Can you explain further what you're trying to say?
Mistral is mainly funded by Nvidia
