This feels like a really stupid move if they want to lock international users into US-based AI. This will just make more flock to alternatives that will catch up.
(This isn’t me being for AI but trying to understand this from the US perspective)
The majority of spend comes from the US already; it's a pre-IPO marketing stunt to get even more enterprise customers. "Our model is sooo advanced, it's illegal!"
"I would like to fight you, but my hands are registered as lethal weapons..."
I came here to say this.
Why was space ex in the news before and even after the ipo?
