Antitrust agencies are increasingly interested in generative AI. This can be good news. As Sandy Pentland and I wrote last year (here), the competitive dynamics in this space can be supported by a careful antitrust agenda. While the AI Act should be improved if the EU wants innovation to flourish (see this article), enforcement actions...Read More
This contribution tackles the technology (what open source is), the market (how open source creates competitive pressure in generative AI), and the law (what should - and shouldn’t - be done about it)Read More

The series is curated by Sandy Pentland, MIT Toshiba Professor and Director of MIT Connection Science, and authored by Robert Mahari, JD-Ph.D. Student at Harvard Law School and MIT and Tobin South, Ph.D. Student...Read More
Counter-positioning is a business strategy in which a company positions itself in a way that its competitors are unwilling to replicate to avoid cannibalization. A well-known example of counter-positioning is Netflix’s policy not to charge late fees. In 2000, Blockbuster was earning a large portion of its revenue ($800 million) from late fees. When Netflix entered...Read More
