I think this is about preventing sanctioned countries or individuals using US technology we don't want them to have access too (like China not having modern GPUs). That goal seems reasonable though there's always a fear that the law is way broader than the high level intent. Why would it be "an absolute nightmare" if it's so easy to migrate?
That's the stated goal. The actual goal is more likely complete knowledge of any person using IaaS service whether domestic or foreign and what they're up to.
Yeah, mass surveillance.
I meant an absolute nightmare of a bill in general and for the IaaS providers. The US is winning the AI race because of their open ecosystem and capability to execute and these types of things hurt that bad.
