The ups and downs of investing in Europe, with VCs Saul Klein and Raluca Ragab
It’s something we talked about this week in London, when TechCrunch took its StrictlyVC series of more intimate, more investor-focused events on the road. Sitting down with Saul Klein, the renowned founder of the seed-stage firm LocalGlobe, along with Raluca Ragab, a managing director at the growth-stage outfit Eurazeo, we hashed out with the two how alike – and distinct – the U.S. venture market is right now compared with Europe.

Scarlett Johansson brought receipts to the OpenAI controversy
OpenAI announced this week that it’s removing Sky, one of the voices used by its new GPT-4o model, after users found it sounded eerily similar to Scarlett Johansson’s AI character in “Her.” While the company claims the voice was not based on Johansson’s, the actress said OpenAI had previously approached her about using her voice for the model. The U.S. Department of Justice and 30 state attorneys general filed a lawsuit against Live Nation Entertainment, Ticketmaster’s parent company, for alleged monopolistic practices.

Women in AI: Sarah Myers West says we should ask, 'Why build AI at all?'
To give AI-focused women academics and others their well-deserved — and overdue — time in the spotlight, TechCrunch has been publishing a series of interviews focused on remarkable women who’ve contributed to the AI revolution. Sarah Myers West is managing director at the AI Now institute, an American research institute studying the social implications of AI and policy research that addresses the concentration of power in the tech industry. Early in my career, I had a front row seat observing how U.S. tech companies showed up around the world in ways that changed the political landscape — in Southeast Asia, China, the Middle East and elsewhere — and wrote a book delving in to how industry lobbying and regulation shaped the origins of the surveillance business model for the internet despite technologies that offered alternatives in theory that in practice failed to materialize.
