Domestic consumption of microchips in China has almost the 50% of the worñd production. Constraints imposed by the US have no sense. The largest customer of the Netherlands for litogtaphy is China. The largest market for Taiwan and South Korea is again China. When, some of largest US firms assemble their products in China, the US policy is mainly addressed as a pressure for EU countries, for lowering their dependence with respect to the Chinese industry. The subordination of EU to the strategic interests of the USA is the path to an increasing irrelevance of the EU. In a mutually interconnected world where China has the first place in most technological areas (37 of 44) it is not a smart policy promote an impossible and unrealsitic isolation. The EU must have its own policy focused towards mutual collaboration.

From the middle of January’22, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area has gained an upper hand in technological innovation and manufacturing, becoming a hotspot for investors from home and abroad. The GBA has integrated technical innovation with the manufacturing sector, which is an obvious advantage compared with peer bay areas in the USA and Tokyo. Congratulations for all people involved in this Project which is becoming a reality. From Jirons’98 we can provide an assessment for related technological issues in the applications of AI, Robotics and Computer Vision to different ares
