A cool detail in the article that you can look up in the news is the French government investing €650m in AI, including technology (not just implementation, training and licensing it seems). Hope some of it is for further funding and equity in Mistral, and that other European countries follow suit. Even better if there was a great non-profit or B-Corp European alternative to the US and Chinese frontier/SOTA labs.

If they keep persecuting Anthropic as they have, I wouldn't be surprised to see them move offshore. If there's ever been an industry that is mobile, it would be AI.
