The JRC study evaluates capabilities, limitations, and risks, running models on secure internal infrastructure without special access from Chinese developers or plans for daily operational use. ENISA already uses models from Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google and is separately testing a few Chinese open-weight models. Both bodies are jointly building an AI testing platform, part of the Commission's July AI and cybersecurity plan, due by year end, that lets sectors like energy, finance, and health trial AI tools on mock networks. The move reflects Europe's dependence on foreign AI given the absence of a leading homegrown model, with a major German tech firm reportedly dropping Mistral for Chinese open models. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
