Recital 5
Recital 5
(5) The new objective would allow the Joint Undertaking to perform activities in the domains of acquiring and operating AI- dedicated supercomputers or partitions of supercomputers to enable fast machine learning and training of large AI foundation models thus strengthening EU's competitiveness and industrial base in AI. The Joint Undertaking should also be allowed to create a new access mode to its computing resources for AI startups and scaleups with the aim of overcoming cost constraints and a lack of resource expertise, and the wider scientific community active in AI and to develop dedicated AI applications optimized to run on its supercomputers. Those changes would enable the Joint Undertaking to offer tailored computing power and services to nurture large-scale AI training and development and uptake in the Union, which is not feasible under the current Regulation.
