Polymarket Puts 21% Odds on US Blocking Public Access to a Major Chinese AI Model in 2026
Polymarket · x · 2026-09-10
Polymarket prices a 21% chance ($45K volume) that the US federal government takes formal action — legislation, executive order, or export control — generally removing US public access to a major Chinese AI model before end of 2026. The market resolves Yes even if the action nominally targets other parties but has that effect. The same post cites an Axios report that Senator Bernie Sanders will convene a bipartisan Senate briefing next week on AI's "extraordinary dangers."
