While representing the United States at the first-ever Global Summit on AI Safety in London, I laid out a vision for the future of artificial intelligence (AI) - a future where AI is used to advance the public interest. In order for that vision to be realized, it is imperative that the United States remain the global leader on AI.
The Executive Order announced today will ensure the United States has the infrastructure - including large-scale data centers and clean power facilities - necessary to maintain America's competitive advantage and safeguard our national security interests. The significant electrical power needs of large-scale AI operations also present a new opportunity for advancing American leadership in clean-energy technology, which will power our future economy. By activating the full force of the federal government to speed up and scale AI operations here in the United States, we are securing our global leadership on AI, which will have a profound impact on our economy, society, and national security for generations to come.
