No country controls every layer: The hidden AI systems reshaping global power
"That trust allows us to work closely with the world's leading innovators, aligning our manufacturing roadmaps with their product designs years before production begins."That division of labour has allowed a swathe of companies to become highly specialised, while also concentrating capabilities in a handful of places. Those restrictions have since evolved, while new ones have spread up and down the supply chain — from Japan, to the Netherlands, to China — profoundly shaping AI's development.In other words, the geography of today's AI race isn't simply the product of technological competition. NVIDIA's GB200 NVL72 is a rack-scale AI computing system designed to sit inside a data centre.
