Artificial intelligence concentration governance risk concerns who can decide access, pricing, safety policies, labor deployment, research direction, and infrastructure allocation. When compute and model capability are concentrated together, market alternatives and independent oversight can become weaker.

Possible responses include interoperability, competitive procurement, infrastructure access, audit rights, disclosure, portability, public-interest research, and proportionate regulation. Governance should also preserve beneficial scale where it improves reliability or safety rather than assuming concentration is always harmful.
