There's one massive problem with this plan. Chinese firms and open source projects keep releasing AI that costs a fraction to train than its US counterparts, and can run on a group of daisy chained Mac Minis.
If these AI models catch on, if compute is far less important, then the compute economy doesn't work.
So, you convince the public that AI is an out of countrol spiteful God that wants to kill us all so we ask the government to pass laws that ban open source AI.
