• Salvador Illa announces a strategic plan for the deployment of artificial intelligence in Catalonia, with an investment of one billion euros until 2030.
• The plan aims to benefit about 5,000 SMEs and 90,000 citizens, and reflects the omnipresence and projection of AI.
• AI presents both immense positive potential as well as a risk of seriously affecting the labor market.
• The EU has established regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation, to ensure proper use of AI.
• There is pressure, especially from the United States, to relax EU regulations on AI.
• Israel plans to use AI conversation models to improve its image in the United States.

Conclusion: The development of AI is constant with various interests behind its use which are not always innocent. It is essential to maintain regulations that protect citizens and ensure that it is properly used for the collective interests, rather than prioritizing the enrichment of the wealthiest.
