The cynicism is earned. But "nobody is good for humanity" is where analysis stops.
What's actually happening is a jurisdictional split forming in real time. The US is pricing out companies that won't remove human oversight from weapons systems. That's not a soap opera —
it's a policy signal with long-term consequences for where frontier AI development lands geographically.
Europe isn't perfect. But it's the only major jurisdiction actively building the governance infrastructure to keep humans in the loop by law, not by goodwill. That matters when goodwill
runs out — which, as you note, it tends to do.
The people building that alternative aren't the CEOs in Washington. Worth knowing they exist.
