Episode notes
U.S. Controls Capacity, Usage, And Control
- The AI stack's capacity, usage, and control largely sit with the United States.
- That triple advantage shapes who trains models, hosts traffic, and who can restrict cutting-edge hardware exports.
Design, Software, And Export Levers
- American firms design leading AI chips and dominate frameworks like CUDA, PyTorch, and TensorFlow.
- Fabrication happens overseas, but U.S. design and policy set performance and export limits that determine who trains frontier models.
U.S. Platforms Finance The Internet's Plumbing
- CDNs, edge services, and undersea cables are funded or operated largely by U.S. platforms.
- Those
