Recital 4 b (new)
(4 b) Artificial intelligence (AI) in particular is a promising technology that the Union should enhance. From medicine to transportation to cybersecurity and energy efficiency, and more, AI holds great promise for progress in our society, and for solving some of the world’s biggest problems in terms of health, the environment, education, and mobility contributing to achieving the objectives of the Union and deepening the internal market.

(7) Digital skills, basic and advanced, are essential to reinforce the collective resilience of the Union’s society. Digitally empowered and capable citizens will be able to take advantage of the opportunities of the Digital Decade. Moreover, digital training and education should support a workforce in which people can acquire specialised digital skills to get quality jobs and rewarding careers in much greater numbers than today, with convergence between women and men. In addition, an essential enabler for taking advantage of the benefits of digitisation, for further technological developments and for Europe’s digital leadership is a sustainable digital infrastructure for connectivity, microelectronics and the ability to process vast data. Excellent and secure connectivity for everybody and everywhere in Europe including in rural and remote areas40 is needed. Societal needs for upload and download bandwidth are constantly growing. By 2030, networks with gigabit speeds should become available at accessible conditions for all those who need or wish such capacity. To this end, it is paramount to ensure the appropriate investments aiming to boost the development of 5G and 6G networks, cloud infrastructure, high-performance computing capacities, quantum computing technologies and other ICT emerging technologies. This requires a fair and proportionate contribution to the cost of usage and financing of network operators investment in connectivity and digital infrastructures especially by large content platforms. Moreover, microprocessors which are already today at the start of most of the key, strategic value chains are expected to be in even higher demand in the future, in particular the most innovative ones. Climate neutral highly secure edge node guaranteeing access to data services with low latency wherever businesses are located and quantum capacity are also expected to be critical enablers. _________________ 40 Long-term Vision for the EU’s Rural Areas.
