Center for Security and Emerging Technology presented a two-part framework for assessing sovereign AI. It is based on two questions: why do states strive for sovereign AI, and how do they achieve it.

The description considers five countries — the United States, China, France, India, and Singapore. The author’s overview traces the different paths they have chosen toward sovereign AI.

The practical value of the framework lies in the ability to compare national strategies not only by stated goals but also by the means of their implementation. This is an editorial interpretation of the material's structure, not a confirmation of specific measures or outcomes.
