Sovereign AI
A country building and controlling its own AI within its borders.
Sovereign AI is the push by nations to develop and run AI using their own infrastructure, data, and rules rather than depending on foreign companies. The motivations include protecting citizens' data, preserving the local language and culture, and not being at the mercy of another country's technology. It reflects a growing view that AI is a matter of national interest.
For example
A country funding its own AI models and data centers so its data stays at home is pursuing sovereign AI.
