The author compares the AI race to a marathon towards Artificial Superintelligence (ASI). While US labs like OpenAI or Anthropic might cross the finish line first, bringing advantages in science and industry, this lead may be temporary. Once the path is proven, other entities like China, possessing money, talent, and time, will inevitably follow. In the era of ASI, winning only means arriving first, not staying unique forever.
