Coverage here centers on what it actually takes for a country, institution, or region to control its own AI capabilities rather than rent them. Expect scrutiny of the full stack: model provenance, training data ownership, retraining rights, compute infrastructure, and the cultural defaults baked into weights. The focus is on distinguishing genuine independence from rebranded foreign models, and on the policy, procurement, and engineering choices that make verifiable control possible.
