Ensuring that they benefit from AI is therefore becoming a critical objective for countries and regions. Equally, countries want AI and its outputs to reflect and support their local language, legal, and cultural needs, rather than being based on data from other nations or under the control of private companies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sovereign AI provides this level of control, covering physical computing infrastructure, processes, workforce and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huwise.com\/en\/what-is-data-governance-practical-guide\/\">data governance<\/a>. It delivers independence and sovereignty over AI, now and in the future. The aim is to create sovereign AI foundational models that have been trained on local datasets and are then used within the country to meet its business, cultural, military and governmental objectives, and that comply with local legal and compliance requirements. Countries across the world have announced sovereign AI strategies including India, Singapore, Taiwan and the Netherlands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sovereign AI delivers multiple benefits:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Driving local innovation and safeguarding economic competitiveness<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protecting against cybersecurity and other military threats<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stimulating the creation of a skilled workforce that drives innovation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creating a domestic AI industry and ecosystem to enable digital transformation that benefits local society<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"hs-cta-embed hs-cta-embed-191845979406\" style=\"max-width: 100%; max-height: 100%; width: 684px; height: 298.984375px;\" data-hubspot-wrapper-cta-id=\"191845979406\">\n<div class=\"hs-cta-loading-dot__container\">\n<div class=\"hs-cta-loading-dot\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"hs-cta-loading-dot\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"hs-cta-loading-dot\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"hs-cta-embed__skeleton\"><\/div>\n<picture><source srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" media=\"(max-width: 480px)\" \/><\/picture>\n<picture><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"height: 100%; width: 100%; object-fit: fill;\" src=\"https:\/\/no-cache.hubspot.com\/cta\/default\/2041226\/interactive-191845979406.png\" alt=\"\u00a0\" \/><\/picture>\n<\/div>\n<h3><b>What is driving Sovereign AI?<\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><b>\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Six key factors are driving Sovereign AI:<\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><b>Protecting national interests<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 ensuring that AI serves local needs and is under government control in an increasingly turbulent world<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span><b>Control of critical infrastructure<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 AI data centers are being built across the globe.
