AI Opportunity Statement

55 signatories

We, the undersigned, gathered in common purpose, affirm a shared vision for our innovation ecosystems and a common commitment to the principles of trusted partnership and technological progress to advance our mutual prosperity and economic security.

Recognizing the critical importance of the physical backbone for artificial intelligence, from critical minerals and energy to compute and semiconductor manufacturing, we share the view that the future of AI should be built on a foundation of trusted collaboration, economic security, innovation, and fair competition.

Embracing AI Opportunity

We express our desire to pursue an approach to AI that promotes entrepreneurship and innovation for our mutual prosperity, anchored in the following shared priorities:

Promoting Pro-Innovation Regulation

We support the adoption of policies and frameworks that advance technological innovation and promote investment. We aim to champion a pro-growth regulatory environment that fosters AI innovation and empowers builders, startups, workers, citizens, communities, and the platforms that enable them, in all our economies, to test, deploy, and scale secure and trusted AI ecosystems.

Strengthening Broad Cooperation on AI

We plan to deepen cooperation to support the supply chains of tomorrow. This includes joint R&D initiatives to expand reliable energy infrastructure, produce critical minerals, harness skilled workforces, and accelerate the development of trusted semiconductor ecosystems. We will also explore opportunities to jointly export our AI stack, including trusted connectivity, to partner countries.

Mobilizing Private Industry

We seek to foster an environment where the AI revolution is driven by robust ecosystems of developer tools and platforms that lower barriers to entry, underpinned by the creative power of the private sector. We endeavor to facilitate cross-border venture capital flows and R&D partnerships to help ensure our entrepreneurs remain the architects of the future. We intend to work together to enable industry partnerships and investments in next-generation data centers, expand access to AI compute, and advance innovation in trusted AI models, including both open and closed-source models, as well as the development of AI applications.

Shared Prosperity and Progress

This partnership signals a new era in which we join efforts in the pursuit of shared prosperity and progress. Together, we aspire to build an AI future that serves our peoples, strengthens our economies and societies, and reflects our shared values of entrepreneurship, innovation, and the rule of law.
