One sobering pattern stood out: even when information was abundant, entrenched mental models shaped what analysts saw — and what they missed. The 9/11 Commission later concluded that “the most important failure was one of imagination.

IT 업계 로비 단체인 CCIA가 EU AI 규제에 반대 한다는 입장을 밝혔다. 최근 브뤼셀에서 열린 EU 정상회의에서, 미국계 기업들이 주도하는 CCIA는 EU AI 법안 의 시행 연기를 요청했다. 협회 측은 특히 오는 8월 2일 발효 예정인 ‘일반 목적 AI(General Purpose AI, GPAI)’ 모델 관련 규정 등 주요 조항들이 여전히 미비하다는 점을 이유로 들었다. CCIA는 EU 집행위원회가 AI 법안의 시행 시한을 지키지 못할 우려가 있다고 언급했다. 법안을 성급하게 도입할 경우 유럽의 AI 전략 전반에 심각한 차질을 줄 수 있다는 지적이다. 특히 EU 집행위원회가 AI 도입을 통해 2030년까지 약 3조 4,000억 유로의 경제적 가치를 창출할 것으로 전망한 상황에서, 성급한 법 시행이 EU의 AI 성장 전략에 타격을 줄 수 있다고 말했다.

현재 데이터센터 공간을 확보하려는 기업이라면 현실을 직시해야 한다. 앞으로 2년 동안은 사실상 공간을 구하기 어렵고, 일부 남아 있는 공간도 예산보다 훨씬 비싸게 지불해야 한다. CBRE의 최신 ‘글로벌 데이터센터 트렌드’ 보고서에 따르면, 올해 1분기 기준 전 세계 데이터센터 공간의 평균 임대료는 월 1kW당 217.30달러로 전년 동기 대비 3.3% 상승했다. 그러나 이처럼 완만해 보이는 연간 상승률 뒤에는 기업 예산을 압박하는 극심한 지역별 급등세가 숨겨져 있다. 암스테르담은 무려 18%나 치솟았으며, 미국 북버지니아와 시카고도 각각 17.6%, 17.2%가 증가했다. 기업은 보통 데이터센터 비용이 연간 5~7% 정도 오를 것으로 예상해 예산을 세우는데, 이번처럼 두 자릿수로 뛰는 비용 상승은 IT 예산에는 치명적이다.
