The United States is preparing to notify dozens of countries about the need to make a choice between Washington and Beijing in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). A U.S. official and an internal draft document reveal that the State Department has prepared a letter addressed to 35 nations.
The list includes participants in the Pax Silica initiative, aimed at securing supply chains for AI models, semiconductors, and critical minerals, as well as other countries interested in cooperating with the United States.
A fragment of the letter states: “Being a part of everything means not being a part of anything. Signing the Pax Silica Declaration is not just a formalization of membership, but a commitment.”
The draft document does not directly mention China, but it urges nations to make a “conscious choice” regarding partnerships in AI technologies.
