South Korea $3.5 billion frontier AI model

South Korea is putting $3.5 billion behind a frontier model of its own, with chips, data and talent all clustered around it. The bigger shift underneath that number: the question is moving away from who has the best model and toward which countries are comfortable depending on someone else for intelligence that may become critical infrastructure. If that reading holds, sovereign AI stops being a niche concern and becomes the baseline for any economy that takes itself seriously.
