I think the main issue is that the EU is very quick to regulate before it even fully understands the problems or what the potential consequences of the regulation would be. The cookie banners were an absolutely obvious outcome. And we're seeing it again right now with their draft AI regulations before anyone even barely understands what it is or what the problems are.

It's why EU simply can't produce anything useful at all because any European with a spark of entrepreneurial spirit goes to USA to start their company.

Not sure why you’re downvoted—the evidence is in your favor. This whole thread is basically about the EU not being brought along in what most consider a tech revolution, and it’s likely a direct response to their laws that are well intentioned, but practically onerous. Arguable, we recently saw the same thing with labor laws. The net result will be a smaller presence of American tech companies/jobs/services in Europe. Many self-identified Europeans here seem to be in support of that outcome—Godspeed!
