As you say, there are advantages and disadvantages. What I don't see is how the bar chart in the tweet justifies the comment above it that "You should be in the US if you're starting an AI company". To be perfectly clear: it doesn't, and if one should move to the US to start an AI company, then the numbers of AI companies already there wouldn't really tell us why.
The error is of the same kind as counting the number of papers published by a researcher, or an institution, or an entire country, as some kind of indication for the quality of the research in those papers.
After all, if we just counted publications in AI journals, China, which is far ahead of all the rest of the world (with 39.87%, vs 10.03% of the US) would appear to be the leader in AI research. And that's according to Figure 1.1.11 in the report
Here's a link to the report btw:
