New #AI rule ! Hit or miss ? #askNostr

From Wired :

The list of trusted nations are the UK, Canada, Australia, Japan, France, Germany, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Republic of Korea, Spain, Sweden and Taiwan.

Companies in other nations not subject to arms controls will be able to obtain up to 1,700 of the latest AI chips without special permission, the rule states. They will be able to apply for a special license to acquire more chips, to build very large scale datacenters using US technology, or to gain access to the most powerful closed model “weights” made by US firms. Companies will be required to have adequate physical and cyber-security to obtain a license.

I feel like that's all retarded. At least with a natural resource like uranium you can pretend to have some kind of control over its proliferation, but anyone can make computer chips if they work hard enough. Even if they can't, they can always just train their AIs a bit slower. Computer chips are 4 steps removed from the actually dangerous thing. I would have given up after 2 steps.

The government would be better served shifting its focus toward making a bigger stick.
