This presents a very constructive framework on how the US government should best proceed managing its Frontier labs and technological lead in AI. Well done, Ryan!
Very interesting read! I'm enjoying all the recent policy proposals. Your text seems to parallel Dean Ball's 'What should be done,' a clear set of rules on both layers would certainly be most workable both for govs and labs. But, as a European, I couldn't help but notice the similarity between the plan you lay out and the scenario established in europe2031.ai Your AI umbrella closely mirrors the Frontier Inference Services Rule envisioned in europe2031 - a framework that also has EU's demise as its result. Now reading your other work, I'd guess that you would make a case for EU building interdependencies by leveraging its dominance in AI plumbing. But not being an AI sovereign likely means a long-term economic squeeze, continuously weakening the (little) leverage Europe still wields. How would you say that Europe can avoid the 2031 scenario? Even taking into account Anton Leicht's arguments, a European moonshot seems to have little alternative
The AI umbrella is really a dependency bargain: build your banks, grids, ports, and bureaucracies around American intelligence, and trust Washington not to pull the plug.
