FWIW I note that the MOH is planning the establishment of regulatory sandbox to enable “advanced AI solutions that may fully automate certain medical tasks or significantly change healthcare workflows” to be trialed. Too early for any guidelines to be issued but a number of AI startups are active in the space (Zebra Medical, Aidoc). Obviously many other regulatory agencies are proceeding on a broadly similar path (albeit at different speed). H/T P05.
Very interesting thoughts, Amir. A few days ago, I had a similar thought. I said to myself that the countries that will win the Tech arms race in the future (including the AI oneI) are the ones that can build enough sovereign digital infrastructure. Right now, a lot of the world's tech is being built on cloud infrastructure that's owned by one country.
AI makes it 10X more important since, just like let's say energy, and roads, it's a matter of national security. On the one hand, this situation poses opportunities for countries like Israel and Canada to build their infrastructure and develop new AI solutions a bit more autonomously and win the race.

On the other hand, this could act like "tariffs" for data, as countries will become less likely to share data with others, unless a bilateral agreement is signed with another country. I mentioned a few words about it in one of my previous articles here on Substack, where I talked about "Data regionalisation" and this is one possible scenario out of many: https://signaltoproduct.substack.com/i/163134058/profound-changes-to-the-world-order-could-lead-to-a-new-multipolar-world-order-and-data-regionalisation
