Miles Brundage, Georgia Adamson and Konstantin Pilz of the Institute for Progress (IFP) report that the US AI lead over China is currently about six months.

They estimate the US could roughly double that lead to more than a year using existing federal authorities. The report's two most important proposed interventions are a BIS end-use control restricting China's remote access to training clusters abroad, and a narrow DOJ/FTC safe harbor that would let US companies coordinate on countering Chinese adversarial distillation.
