.@UnderSecPD Sarah B. Rogers: AI with a "Western soul" is the greatest soft power tool America can possess. "Tyler Cowen has this great phrase — he talks about AI with a Western soul." "AI that reasons in an individualistic way, a rules-based way, that prioritizes user consent — those are all Western principles." "And that is going to be the underlying reasoning model on which so much of the world's communication and commerce runs." "The proliferation of a Western AI stack is really a top priority for our entire administration. It should be a top priority for anyone who cares about freedom."(a16z)
