AI Sovereignty hinges on ownership, not just data location, says expert

Antoni Kozelski, CEO of Vstorm, argues that true AI sovereignty goes beyond data residency and focuses on ownership of the technology stack. He explains that many organizations mistakenly believe having data in-country equates to control, but laws like the U.S. CLOUD Act allow foreign entities to access data regardless of its physical location. Kozelski emphasizes that genuine sovereignty involves owning critical layers of the AI stack, such as process logic and open-weight models, and ensuring the ability to migrate these components to different providers.
