This week, I\u2019m not going to talk to you about a new product launch, a benchmark, or even a round of funding in the AI sector. I just wanted to tell you about a roundtable held in \u00c9vian.\u00c9vian is a town on the shores of Lake Geneva in France, where G7leaders gathered from June 15 to 17\u2026<\/a>and right next to them, dining with them, were the heads of the companies that are building artificial intelligence. <\/p>

There were Sam Altman of OpenAI, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, and Demis Hassabis of Google DeepMind. All three were at the summit alongside heads of state,<\/a> and CNBC itself headlined the story: “A sign of where the power lies right now.”<\/p>

But let’s take it one step at a time\u2014there’s a lot to cover here….<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

What exactly happened at the summit?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

As you know, the G7 is the club of the seven major Western economies. It\u2019s an annual summit where they discuss wars, tariffs, energy\u2014the really serious issues. Historically, business leaders aren\u2019t invited to lunch there\u2014only presidents and prime ministers. The fact that this year\u2019s working lunch included, according to Bloomberg, nearly a dozen tech leaders,<\/a> marks a shift in who is considered a \u201ckey player\u201d at the table where the world\u2019s course is decided. <\/p>

And it wasn\u2019t just the three big American companies. Also at that lunch were Arthur Mensch from the French company Mistral; Aidan Gomez from the Canadian company Cohere; Victor Riparbelli from the British company Synthesia; and Robin Rombach from the German company Black Forest Labs\u2026 In short, every country brought its national AI champion, just as one would bring a delegation. (If that doesn\u2019t tell you something about how the landscape has changed in two years, I don\u2019t know what will.) <\/p>


As for the panel discussion, the most relevant topics addressed were: the risks of frontier models, infrastructure and sovereignty in relation to who controls the computing process, chips, and, ultimately, who depends on whom.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The most uncomfortable part: the \"red button\"<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The fact is, it wasn\u2019t all smiles and handshakes. Beneath the surface of the luncheon, a very palpable tension hung in the air. The United States has tightened export controls on the most powerful models, particularly in light of the recent case involving Anthropic\u2019s new Fable5 model. According to reports from the summit itself<\/a>, this sparked a very reasonable fear: that of the \u201ckill switch.\u201d <\/p>

To use an analogy and help you understand this better: if your company operates under an American business model, and Washington decides tomorrow that that model can no longer be exported to certain places\u2026 what do you do? Who on earth do you call? That question\u2014which three years ago was the stuff of science fiction\u2014was at the forefront of the G7 this week, and there was no reassuring answer. <\/p>

The most curious thing is that the AI leaders themselves went to \u00c9vian to ask for exactly the opposite. At the summit, Amodei and Hassabis advocated for a U.S.-led coalition<\/a> to coordinate the development of this technology among democracies\u2014in other words, \u201clet\u2019s get this sorted out among ourselves before someone else does.\u201d It makes perfect sense, though you tell me if a coalition led by whoever controls the switch is entirely reassuring… <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A few weeks ago, I told you about Musk leasing infrastructure to Anthropic.<\/a> In my article, I concluded that the real driving force behind this industry is no longer just the model\u2014it\u2019s computing power and energy. That same logic is what has put all these people in their positions. They aren\u2019t there because they\u2019re the smartest in the class, but because they control infrastructure on which entire countries now depend\u2014and that\u2019s called POWER.<\/strong> <\/p>

What was a business-to-business transaction in May is now a matter of national sovereignty being discussed by heads of state. The speed at which this is unfolding is truly staggering. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

This event is official confirmation that AI companies are no longer just technology providers\u2014they are geopolitical players (just as oil companies and big pharmaceutical firms once were). When you sit down to eat with the G7, you have de facto become part of the conversation about global power. <\/p>

The word \u201csovereignty\u201d is no longer just a nice-sounding phrase for conferences; it has become an architectural decision. If you build your entire business around a single AI provider located across the Atlantic, you\u2019re taking on a risk that wasn\u2019t even on the radar two years ago. The case of Fable5 proves this point. <\/p>

When the people who build the technology are the same ones advising on how to regulate it\u2014and they also sit at the table where decisions are made\u2026 who watches the watcher?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

We’ll remember that photo of lunch at Evian either as the day AI finally took its place at the grown-ups’ table, and things were put in order… or as the day it was already too late to ask who was in charge.<\/p>

What about you? If you had to build the critical part of your business on an AI model today, who would you trust\u2014and, more importantly, who wouldn’t you trust? <\/p>

Leave me your comments\u2014I’d love to hear from you \ud83d\ude42<\/p>
