China, the United States, and the European Union have committed to jointly address AI challenges, focusing on the risks posed by advanced systems like ChatGPT.

Tensions are rising, with conflicts in semiconductor markets and competition over technical standards, data flows, and algorithm disclosure threatening to destabilize international trade and geopolitics.

The U.S. is diverging from its previous stance on free data transfers, while China and India push for data localization, adding to global regulatory complexities.

The EU's proposed AI Act, which demands transparency in AI algorithms, contrasts with the U.S.'s less consistent approach, highlighting the lack of global consensus on AI governance.

The absence of a unified legal framework for AI governance breeds mistrust among nations and risks the unchecked development of AI as a tool for geopolitical strife, jeopardizing national security and democratic integrity.
