EU and US unshackle regulations in quest for growth, and is the AI bubble about to burst? Not yet, says NvidiaHello, and welcome to TechScape. I’m your host, Blake Montgomery, writing to you from an American grocery store, where I’m planning my Thanksgiving pies.In tech, the European Union is deregulating artificial intelligence; the United States is going even further.

الاتحاد الأوروبي يخفف من تنظيمات الذكاء الاصطناعي، بينما الولايات المتحدة تتخذ إجراءات أكثر جرأة لتعزيز النمو في هذا القطاع. على الرغم من المخاوف المستمرة بشأن احتمال انفجار فقاعة الذكاء الاصطناعي، فإن الأرباح الفصلية المذهلة لشركة نفيديا قد خففت من المخاوف الفورية، مما يشير إلى أن الفقاعة لم تنفجر بعد.

La Unión Europea está relajando las regulaciones sobre inteligencia artificial (IA), mientras que Estados Unidos está tomando medidas aún más drásticas para fomentar el crecimiento en este sector. A pesar de las preocupaciones sobre una posible burbuja de IA, las impresionantes ganancias trimestrales de Nvidia han aliviado los temores inmediatos, sugiriendo que la burbuja aún no ha estallado.

Malgré les inquiétudes persistantes concernant une éventuelle bulle de l'IA, les résultats impressionnants de Nvidia ont apaisé les craintes immédiates, suggérant que la bulle n'a pas encore éclaté.

Europe loosens reins on AI – and US takes them off

OpenAI expanded its <a href="https://openai.com/index/expanding-data-residency-access-to-business-customers-worldwide/">data residency regions</a> for ChatGPT and its API, giving enterprise users the option to store and process their data closest to their business operations and better comply with local regulations. This expansion removes one of the biggest compliance blockers preventing global enterprises from deploying ChatGPT at scale.<a href="https://venturebeat.com/business/data-across-borders-the-importance-of-data-residency?utm_source=facebook&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_campaign=bigdata&amp;utm_term=security">Data residency</a>, often an overlooked piece of the enterprise AI puzzle, processes and governs data according to the laws and customs of the countries where it is stored. ChatGPT Enterprise and Edu subscribers can now choose to have their data processed in: <ul><li>Europe (European Economic Area and Switzerland)</li><li>United Kingdom</li><li>United States</li><li>Canada</li><li>Japan</li><li>South Korea</li><li>Singapore</li><li>India</li><li>Australia</li><li>United Arab Emirates</li></ul>OpenAI said in <a href="https://openai.com/index/expanding-data-residency-access-to-business-customers-worldwide/">a blog post</a> that it “plans to expand availability to additional regions over time.” Customers can store data such as conversations, uploaded files, custom GPTs, and image-generation artifacts. This applies only to data at rest, not while it moves through a system or when it is used for inference. OpenAI’s <a href="https://help.openai.com/en/articles/9903489-data-residency-and-inference-residency-for-chatgpt">documentation</a> notes that, for now, inference residency remains available only in the U.S.  ChatGPT Enterprise and Edu users can set up new workspaces with data residency. Enterprise customers on the API who have been approved for advanced data controls can enable data residency by creating a new project and selecting their preferred region.OpenAI first began offering data residency in Europe in <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/02/06/openai-launches-data-residency-in-europe/">February this year</a>. The European Union has some of the strictest data regulations globally, based on the GDPR. <h2>The importance of data residency</h2>Enterprises until now had fewer choices for processing data flowing through ChatGPT. For example, some organizational data would be processed under U.S. law rather than under European rules. Enterprises risk violating data compliance rules if their data at rest is processed elsewhere and does not meet strict policies. “With over 1 million business customers around the world directly using OpenAI, we have expanded where we offer data residency — allowing business customers to store data in certain regions, helping organizations meet local regulatory and data protection requirements,” the company said in its blog post. However, enterprises must also understand that if they are using a connector or integration within ChatGPT, those applications have different data residency rules. When OpenAI launched <a href="https://venturebeat.com/ai/openai-launches-company-knowledge-in-chatgpt-letting-you-access-your-firms">company knowledge for ChatGPT</a>, it warned users that depending on the connector they use, data residency may be limited to the U.S.

قامت OpenAI بتوسيع خيارات إقامة البيانات لمستخدمي المؤسسات من ChatGPT وواجهة برمجة التطبيقات الخاصة بها، مما يسمح لهم بتخزين ومعالجة البيانات في مناطق متعددة، بما في ذلك أوروبا والمملكة المتحدة والولايات المتحدة. يهدف هذا التحرك إلى تحسين الامتثال للوائح المحلية وتسهيل اعتماد تقنيات الذكاء الاصطناعي بشكل أوسع في العمليات التجارية.

OpenAI ha ampliado sus opciones de residencia de datos para los usuarios empresariales de ChatGPT y su API, permitiéndoles almacenar y procesar datos en varias regiones, incluyendo Europa, el Reino Unido y los Estados Unidos. Este movimiento tiene como objetivo mejorar el cumplimiento de las regulaciones locales y facilitar una adopción más amplia de las tecnologías de IA en las operaciones comerciales.
