Forget a single rulebook. The world has split into four distinct AI jurisdictions, and your strategy is already obsolete if it doesn't account for all of them.
The EU, US, China, and India aren't just passing laws. They are building incompatible technological ecosystems with different core logics:

→ China's Synthesis Rules enforce sovereign control.
→ India's DPDP Act governs through data sovereignty.
