They may well have some results. Dumping money on SOTA orgs just bumps compute a little higher. (and maybe data, if you are hiring lots of people to make data.)
It isn’t clear why SOTA orgs would want to be in a govmnt Manhatten project. It also isn’t clear if any modern government retains the competence to run one.
I don’t expect governments to do either of these. You generated those strategies by sampling “dumb but effective” strategies. I tried to sample from “most of the discussion got massively side tracked into the same old political squabbles and distractions.”
The idea that EVERY governments are dumb and won’t figure out a way which is not too bad to allocate their resources into AGI seems highly unlikely to me. There seems to be many mechanisms by which it could not be the case (e.g national defense is highly involved and is a bit more competent, the strategy is designed in collaboration with some competent people from the private sector etc.).
To be more precise, I’d be surprised if no one of these 7 countries had an ambitious plan which meaningfully changed the strategic landscape post-2030:
