The Strategic Memo of The Deal of the Century analyzes the feasibility, actionable paths and persuasion case — for the White House and a critical mass of key formal and informal US AI policy powerbrokers — to champion an extraordinarily bold, timely and proper US-China-led AI treaty, paired with treaty-backed mechanisms for citizen co-ownership of leading AI labs.

It is an incremental series of memos, key part of The Deal of the Century initiative and drafted by the Coalition for a Baruch Plan for AI.

Targeted influencers include: Amodei, Altman, Kratsios, Wiles, Bannon, Rubio, Vance, Pope Leo XIV, Suleyman, Hassabis, Carlson, Rogan and Musk. They benefited from 24 exceptional contributors over 18 months.

The memos examined nearly all pertinent statements made by these influencers including more than 850 articles and videos and over 150 academic papers.

The latest in the series is a 53-page Executive Summary of the Strategic Memo of The Deal of the Century (version 2.8)‍ published on June 26th, 2026. ‍ It Includes a One-Pager & 3rd Open Letter to President Trump and a 15-page Open Case for Anthropic to Decisively Foster a Proper US-China-led AI Treaty.
