How internationally portable is AI?

I was just thinking SWEs and AI researchers should all unionize before AI becomes AGI

Ermm.. of course they will. And deservedly so. Perhaps the AI Ceo's will learn the harsh lesson that Government is king, no matter what, and doesn't care about your on-paper-based wealth. Any party that puts this forward in their manifesto will win. Is this rocket science? I've interacted with numerous politicians - all they care about is there own interests lmao. They will work with you until it no longer benefits them.

The moment when AI CEOs will start hoarding too much power or threaten governments monopoly on violence, nationalization of AI companies is going to happen very fast under disguise of "national security".

Yes if AI causes 40% unemployment they would obviously be nationalized.
