By the time they've figured out how to properly document and annotate the process of removing their collective head from their ass, the US and China will have moved well past completion of several cycles of the AI revolution. The EU is fundamentally broken because they are led by people who have never accomplished things, with credentials from institutions that have forgotten how to teach and train and prepare for the real world. They have fully embraced the credentialism and pompous titles in lieu of competence and effectiveness, have leeched off of their wealthy and successful citizens, and made progress or dynamic change impossible.

The leeches and bureaucrats don't care about actually accomplishing things, about ending corruption, or fixing any of the real world problems experienced by the citizens of the EU. They just want their grift to continue, to feel morally and intellectually superior, and to feel the validation of exercising power over their subjugates. Because they know better, and their education is superior, and if everyone would just listen to the experts, the whole world would just get along and run smoothly.

Everywhere else in the world that allows people to actually do things - and the Europeans that "just do things" in defiance of all the idiots in charge - will own the world in ten years. The EU will be a sad little footnote about the dangers of bureaucratic overreach and pompous elitism.
