> These and other methods are good reason to believe that AI can never be 100% contained, which gives me pause.

On the plus side this requires collaboration both from the inside (on the airgap side) and the outside.

If you install a computer that's not running AI and it's airgapped, it won't suddenly start emitting radio waves out of nowhere.

We should not fall, once again, for the following logical fallacy: "Under exceptionally crazy circumstances it's possible to use RAM or the power line to exfiltrate data from a compliant airgapped computer, hence airgapping computers is pointless".
