California's generative AI platform Poppy: a model for European administrations?
Starting July 1, 2026, California expands its generative AI platform Poppy to all state agencies after a pilot with 2,800 employees. The platform is vendor-agnostic, integrating models from Anthropic, Google, OpenAI, and Amazon, with guarantees on data privacy and no model training on public data. This case offers lessons for European administrations on sovereignty and data protection.
