alt Hacker NewsI applaud mistral's efforts but reading this release made me realize that Europe is far far behind and that once the gap is solidified I don't think its recoverable in the same way Canada's brain drain had on its economy
The best and the brightest from Europe have no incentive to build in Europe when they can do it in America and be compensated and treated far better

Fortunately for Europe, the US is doing its best to make itself both an undesirable and unavailable immigration target.

At this point I wouldn’t move to USA if you paid me double the salary. There are more things in life than money.
That said, if (or when) the progress of the LLMs flatten out, then I think even Europe can catch up in a few years. If they don’t, and that seems unlikely to me, if the required compute needs to increase at the rate it does today, then I am not sure any of us can predict where society ends up.
