Sometimes it's not only *what* is being said but *by whom* it is being said.

Yann LeCunYann LeCun  
VP & Chief AI Scientist at Meta
in a linkedin post:

Hey Europe, you want a vibrant tech industry, right?
The US seems set on destroying its public research funding system.
Many US-based scientists are looking for a Plan B.
You may have an opportunity to attract some of the best scientists in the world.

Scientists will go where they have the means to be the most creative and productive.
Here are the criteria that attract them:
1- access to top students and junior collaborators.
2- access to research funding with little administrative overhead.
3- good compensation (comparable with top universities in the US, Switzerland, Canada).
4- freedom to do research on what they think is most promising.
5- access to research facilities (e.g. computing infrastructure, etc).
6- ability to collaborate/consult with industry and startups.
7- moderate teaching and administrative duties.

They will seek the best trade-off between these criteria in academia, public research, or industry.

European academia rates high on 1 and 4, low on 2 (even if you can get an ERC grant), 5, 6 and 7, and *very* low on 3.
European industry rates low on almost every criterion, particularly on 4, but also on 3 and 5 compared to top US industry labs.

To attract the best scientific and technological talents, make science and technology research professions attractive.
It's pretty straightforward.
