• AI models present force-multiplying risks in cyber, bio, and other threat domains
• Hyper-connected AI in the 6G era will vastly expand adversarial attack surfaces
• US actions like FCC restrictions on optical transceivers carve out market opportunities
• US policy lacks a coherent holistic strategy across energy, raw materials, and tech stack
• The US cannot go it alone; semiconductor supply chains require global tech partners
• Diversifying manufacturing of connected devices away from China is crucial
• India and other markets play a key role in total demand for the coalition effort
