# A UN panel warns AI governance is falling behind, with the US holding 75 percent of the compute

> The number that should stick is 75 percent, because it means the most consequential technology of the decade sits mostly in one country's hands. A UN panel has little power to change that, but naming the imbalance out loud shifts the talk from abstract ethics to who physically owns the machines. Expect countries on the wrong side of that ratio to push harder for their own compute, which is exactly what the India-Japan deal is about.

Expect countries on the wrong side of that ratio to push harder for their own compute, which is exactly what the India-Japan deal is about.
