Comment on Why Won't Europe Build AI Data Centers in Iceland?parent

Comments

Iceland and Norway are part of the EEA so the AI Act and GDPR will reach them just like Germany or France. Running away there from regulators makes no sense. But running from bureaucracy to get land permits and substation connections - yeah maybe municipalities work faster there

Yeah, see my other comment, I made an assumption there because they said datacenters outside the EU, they didn't explicitly say Norway and Iceland, I assumed! Now I wonder what countries they meant!
