Greek Prime Minister Says Governments Are Not Prepared for AI's Pace as Greece Pitches Itself as an AI Hub

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis used a San Francisco AI event to argue that governments are moving too slowly for the speed of artificial intelligence, even as Greece tries to attract AI infrastructure, startups and returning technical talent. The warning came alongside a policy pitch: Greece wants to be a test bed for public-sector AI in healthcare, education, civil protection and defense, but Mitsotakis said neither governments nor societies are ready for the rate at which AI-driven job displacement and social change could arrive.
