it's a very bold argument that the EU, which doesn't house almost any of the companies you have mentioned, is ahead of anyone in terms of AI innovation or diffusion, but I encourage you to make it! perhaps I am wrong. you haven't made it here, though.

Look at open-source leader boards for any of those modalities and you will find UK/EU based teams. Perhaps local market adoption gives the impression diffusion has happened less in the EU but I can't see how you can ignore the role they've played globally ( Grok uses BlackForestLabs for imagegen, or did at one point, for instance. Many big platforms use ElevenLabs for voice agents, etc).
Yes I get that. But your suggestion that the EU policy stance has hindered innovation is provably incorrect, as evidenced by the companies above, some of which are global leaders in the (unassociated) field of diffusion models.

Diffusion methods were invented in EU! Any public leader board has EU or UK headquartered companies in the lead for quality and usage for image gen.
You can also add:
Tabular Foundation Models: Global leader: PriorLabs (Germany)
Avatars (Models + application to be fair): Global leader: Synthesia, (UK)
Just to be clear, I am referring to the concept of diffusion in economics and technology studies, not diffusion models.

I am not referring in any way to diffusion models. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_of_innovations

The UK is not in the EU
