The impact of AI on existing professions is a major social issue as millions of jobs will be replaced by AI-based automated systems. <\/p>\n\n<p>The tax issue (web tax, robot tax) is related to new technologies: even in the U.S., several key players in AI-related technological evolution, including Bill Gates, propose a tax on their use, while others oppose it. Some of the requirements of the AI ACT, e.g., data storage on servers in the EU, transparency of sources with respect to copyright, privacy protection, would make it de facto illegal to use many U.S. AI models in Europe, particularly in public agencies. In fact, many multinational companies have banned employees from using the most popular U.S. AI platforms in their professional activities.  <\/p>\n\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_188342950\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<div class=\"text-center\"><div class=\"is-divider divider clearfix\" ><\/div><\/div>\n\n\t<div id=\"gap-1825861957\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1825861957 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n<div class=\"row row-large\"  id=\"row-1570701651\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-2027335632\" class=\"col medium-12 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t<div id=\"text-583627916\" class=\"text\">\n\t\t\n\n<h2>Insights<\/h2>\n\t\t\n<style>\n#text-583627916 {\n  font-size: 1rem;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1220786806\" class=\"col medium-12 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t<a class=\"plain\" href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/IT\/TXT\/PDF\/?uri=OJ:L_202401689\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" >\t<div class=\"icon-box featured-box icon-box-left text-left\"  >\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-box-img\" style=\"width: 25px\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-inner\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/homo-extensus.ai-book.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/external-link-300x300.png\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homo-extensus.ai-book.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/external-link-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/homo-extensus.ai-book.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/external-link-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/homo-extensus.ai-book.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/external-link.png 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"icon-box-text last-reset\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>The European AI Act document<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<\/a>\n\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_188342950 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Europe&#8217;s technological lag on the development of Artificial Intelligence may provide an opportunity for a pause for reflection, or better yet, thought, to put the question of ethics on the table.
