Genuine question: How will the US put the cat back in the bag?

AI even if stuck to GPT 4~ levels has the potential to be usable in industries and outcompeted non AI users, as such, how can the US tell people that they shouldn't get nuclear power plants?

We'll sell you products and services that utilize AI and you are not allowed to get it yourself, is that the new model? It's no secret (I think?) that the US was behind many of the nuclear scare movements such as the green party in Germany as to avoid nuclear proliferation, for its own interests.

But if nuclear becomes required, and we are decades away from nuclear fusion...? what is the solution here? I'm genuinely curious.

Who is doing this? Last I checked, America has been trying to sell its AP1000 reactor.

Every economy that can is developing AI.

Source? German greens have a veritable track record of being idiots all on their own.
