She is joined by tech regulation expert Matthias Kettemann from the Leibniz Institute for Media Research and DW&#8217;s very own tech policy correspondent Maximiliane Koschyk. Big announcements by German Chancellor Merz on European tech &quot;sovereignty&quot; and plans for a platform tax are still just words, not yet active policy. This week&#8217;s Berlin Briefing explores how Germany and Europe are navigating tense ties with the US and hard realities about who gets to influence the AI race.
