Illia (root.near) (🇺🇦, ⋈)(@ilblackdragon):Here's my talk from @StanfordSBA BASS last week on how to build a sovereign AI stack. Open vs. closed is not the only question for AI sovereignty: -Can you trust that you know exactly which model you’re running? -Do you know if the prompt has been rewritten? -Can you verify the data it was trained on? -Did the model or hardware owner exploit your data? -Can you learn about any topic or is usage restricted by another party? We need verifiability at every layer.
