Frontier AI models are a physical asset, with their weights requiring secure, physical transport to classified government systems. While creating these advanced models is highly resource-intensive and concentrated among a few US-based labs, the spread and use of their capabilities are not viscous. Adversaries can approximate frontier AI performance through methods like synthetic data generation and distillation, by analyzing model outputs accessed via APIs, bypassing the need to possess the model weights directly.
