You can train a model like DeepSeek-V4-Pro with around $2 billion. The current funding is certainly not enough to get ahead in AI, but it is sufficient to get independence in case the open models should dry up suddenly.

By the time they get that funding, European lost will be %100 confirmed by majority, including you perhaps? Race is already lost. They lost it because gap behind Usa, China and rest just growing bigger already.
