US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has asked diplomats to push back against talk of a "kill switch" in American technology products following the White House's short-lived decision to keep foreigners from America's most advanced AI models.
The »kill switch« debate exists because the US proved it could flip one: Even if the restriction was temporary, it reminded governments and businesses that access to critical AI can depend on political decisions made in Washington. That’s exactly why digital sovereignty, OWAI for AI sovereignty in particular, has gone from a niche concern to a strategic priority.
