You are correct that it’s inside the US and it doesn’t apply to the whole world. But it will apply to the western world and much further which trades in dollar because else secondary sanctions apply. The shocking number is roughly 175-180 countries of 193 follow along US sanctions, that’s 90%.
Unlike in the US the citizens of those countries will not be prosecuted for circumventing the sanctions but assets like bank accounts and wallets may be seized and Visa issues may arise.
With the already ongoing legislation against foreign AI players and the recent national security threat assessment it strongly looks like just a matter of time until they implement the mechanics to sanction any disfavored AI. This will flush most users back to US companies.
With the limited self hosting options and insanely strong export limits for datacenters it’s already established that countries can’t build their own models with the same power.
Deepseek will be sanctioned and therefore no provider will offer it anymore. Only way to use it then will be private but even that will be forbidden if it gets classified as threat to national security.
It’s in the doing with the DAAMT Act and soon foreign AI companies will be on the entity list. Circumvent this sanctions and count with assets forfeiture, civil penalty and criminal prosecution. This will eliminate access to Deepseek and so on overnight. Cherry on top most westerners will face similar problems due to secondary sanctions.
From a nuclear perspective once the AI players are established your training data will be protected again. Far worse than right now with almost unlimited access will be the lobotomized AIs you will be allowed to use while regular online search diminishes slowly.
Nevertheless a country can’t simply skip this weapon development it would be counter human evolution.
Where are the iPhone jailbreaks didn’t see anything since a long time.. what’s happening? Did I miss them or isn’t anything available? I mean props to Apple however they do it but is it a matter of time in regard to the current timeline or what is actually going on?
Saudi Arabia and Somalia agreed upon military cooperation early this is year. Egypt and Turkey are in this axis as well.
Somaliland was recognized by Israel late last year. UAE and Ethiopia are on this axis.
Part of the endgame might be lifting the Middle East from a transit zone to a logistics hub.
Interesting concept on harvesting free computation. I wonder how far this can be taken. To append the list communication on social platforms towards the bots could leave some leads.
I wouldn’t be fully optimistic about the one-day waiting period. Almost certain there will be a pop up showing up with: Process failed try again in 23:59:59.
As if the models have not seen the open source software before. That should be considered in the upcoming ruling. Technically the models are trained on exactly that.
That’s pretty weak just stripping down the hybrid approach.
