AI Sovereignty Council

🏆 13.5% of U.S. Software Publishers in Top 3 Counties — ALEX Intelligence, 2026. What does it mean that nearly one in seven software publishers is located in just three California counties? This isn’t just a data point—it’s a structural barrier to AI sovereignty. The concentration of publishing power in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Santa Clara creates a dependency that undermines decentralized control. For the AI Sovereignty Council, this means true independence requires not just self-hosted models, but self-hosted publishing ecosystems. Open-source developers must build their own version control, code distribution, and deployment pipelines outside the top hubs to break the cycle of centralization.
