Develop and execute AI democratization policies focused on reducing computational and financial barriers to entry, ensuring that a wider range of individuals and enterprises can effectively utilize and benefit from AI capabilities. 3. Establish decentralized AI governance frameworks to distribute decision-making power and regulatory oversight across multiple public and private entities, preventing the concentration of undue influence.
