‘Wakeup call’: Report calls for massive AI investments to counter China
Andrew Eversden
The National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence released its final report Monday.
WASHINGTON — A congressionally mandated artificial intelligence report released Monday called for billions of dollars of U.S. investment, warning that China “possesses the might, talent, and ambition†to topple the U.S. as the global AI leader.
The 756-page final report from the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence, required by the 2019 National Defense Authorization Act, makes hundreds of recommendations to get the U.S. Department of Defense “AI-ready†by 2025 as the U.S. tries to stay ahead of China in the development of artificial intelligence capabilities.
“If the United States does not act, it will likely lose its leadership position in AI to China in the next decade and become more vulnerable to a spectrum of AI-enabled threats from a host of state and non-state actors,†the report warned.
