Exempting small companies from AI regulations may lead to the unchecked expansion of surveillance capitalism. This could result in a 'wild west' of data exploitation, harming individual privacy and society at large.

I strongly disagree with the idea of repealing the EU AI Act. This legislation is crucial for protecting citizens' rights and privacy in the age of artificial intelligence. It addresses the power imbalance between tech companies and individuals by ensuring transparency and accountability in AI systems. Repealing it would only benefit corporations, undermining democratic freedoms and societal well-being.

As someone who has studied the dangers of surveillance capitalism, I strongly believe that the EU should not stop requiring websites to ask for cookie consent. This regulation is essential for protecting user privacy and ensuring that individuals have control over their personal data.

As someone deeply concerned about the societal impacts of technology, I believe the EU should indeed work towards a common agreement with the US and China before regulating AI. This approach ensures that regulations are effective on a global scale, preventing loopholes that could be exploited across borders. Coordinated international efforts can set robust standards that protect privacy and democracy while fostering innovation.
