German Minister of Digital and Transport Volker Wissing said Friday that Germany is not currently considering banning generative artificial intelligence (AI).

This month, Italian regulators temporarily blocked ChatGPT following a data breach to investigate whether ChatGPT developer OpenAI violated EU data protection rules.

Wiesing will attend the G-7 Digital and Science and Technology Ministers 'Meeting in Takasaki, Gunma Prefecture, Japan this weekend. He was interviewed Friday in Tokyo. When asked if banning ChatGPT was an option, he replied: "No…if all European countries reacted like Italy, we would end up not seeing any AI applications developed in Europe." "

"We need European AI applications, but on a trustworthy legal basis," he said."AI can also help identify misinformation or false information. If we distort it like Italy, there will be no learning. This meeting of ministers of science and technology is important to define our common vision for good regulation. As like-minded nations, we should be at the forefront of regulating AI. "

Margrethe Vestager, executive vice-president of the European Commission, said this week that the commission intends to "implement as soon as possible" a new law regulating artificial intelligence such as ChatGPT. The law will establish uniform rules for the correct use of generative AI and reduce risk for users.

Meanwhile, Jean-Noel Barrot, France's minister for digital transformation and telecommunications, said in an interview on Friday that France was considering adding "exceptional exemptions for small and medium-sized enterprises" to the EU's AI regulations to ensure that the new rules did not stifle innovation.

France Tech, France's entrepreneurial outreach program,"now has 29 unicorns, compared to three five years ago," he said. "If EU regulation wasn't supporting innovation, we wouldn't be supporting it," says Mr Balott."EU regulations... are not contradictory to innovation. Instead, by creating a single digital market with the same rules among EU member states, we allow companies created in European countries access to a vast unified digital market. "

Balott also referred to a new joint initiative set up by the EU last week to improve its protection against cyber attacks. He said the initiative "includes both the ability to predict and respond to such attacks and the training of professionals in the field."
