For enterprise solutions, it’s hard to imagine a viable competitor that wouldn’t be beholden to similar rules. At least here in the EU where we aren’t very likely to be using non-western tech considering our privacy and national security laws. In both the finance and energy sectors we already face the prospect of needing exit plans from Microsoft products, not because of an anti-Microsoft sentiment but because the EU views it as a national security risk if too much of certain sectors rely on a single tech company. We have a lot of similar bureaucracy taking shape, so we’re not likely to turn to something like Asian AI. Hell the fact that AI vendors wouldn’t adhere to whatever legislation that comes out of these lawsuits and so on would like be enough to disqualify them as an option in the first place. I do think it’ll be interesting to see how our militaries handle the issues. Considering that is probably the one area our governments don’t want to be “behind”.
