U.S. Warns Dozens of Countries to Align with American AI Coalition or Face Exclusion

The United States is reportedly warning dozens of countries that they must choose between the U.S.-led AI coalition, known as the Pax Silica initiative, and Beijing's competing program. Countries that join China's coalition risk exclusion from the American initiative, which aims to secure supply chains for AI models, semiconductors, and critical minerals. This move is intended to deprive China of resources in the race to develop advanced AI, which could be used for military or economic dominance.
