Why can't, I don't know, the Canadian government hire some ex OpenAI employees and attempt to make an AGI? What is the constraint here that makes it only possible for the U.S. and China?

But today it’s turning into big business, and Canada just can’t compete with Silicon Valley salary levels. And that’s a problem on top of trying to convince people to move from California to Toronto. Europe and elsewhere have similar problems. To have an advantage, you need the very best people. But the very best people all want jobs at major US companies, and major US companies want them, too.
