I don't think this is necessarily true with the US being a leader in both AI & Space, but we have to consider that the Overton Window is shifting on global power and what that means in terms of using treasury & sovereign bond collateral globally. "As Henry Kissinger was fond of saying, 'It is not a matter of what is true that counts, but a matter of what is perceived to be true.' We are reaching a critical mass of nations which now perceive they can survive without close economic relations with the U.S., and three of the top five economies by GDP PPP are now openly defying it. That belief will drive an increasingly rapid restructuring of the global economy away from the U.S. Likewise, as long as American leaders have the perception of overwhelming superiority, they risk triggering armed conflicts that they cannot win." -13D Reserach
