The rapid development of generative AI technologies is transforming our world, from the voice assistants in our homes to the AI-powered software in our devices. Traditionally, innovation has been met with light-touch regulations focused primarily on safety. However, the exponential growth of AI is now drawing the close attention of regulators and competition authorities. Europe's proactive regulatory measures, including the DMA, DSA, and AI Act, are already reshaping the landscape. Meanwhile, the US and UK are pursuing different regulatory paths, setting the stage for divergent consumer experiences—from self-driving cars to AI services—with significant economic implications. This panel will explore how regulators can keep pace with accelerating technological change. It will tackle the delicate balance between fostering innovation and ensuring adequate regulation.

When will these regulatory differences manifest in tangible product changes, and what will be their broader economic and political impacts? How can the UK navigate these challenges to carve out an optimal regulatory approach? And how can Europe enhance its competitiveness in this new era?

Join us for a deep dive into the complex intersection of innovation, regulation, and global competitiveness in the age of exponential technological advancement.
