Winning the AI race isn't about building better AI. It’s about using it better
For the past several years, America’s conversation about artificial intelligence has focused on technology. We debate computer chips, data centers, and the capabilities of the latest AI models. We worry about whether the United States can stay ahead of China and whether American firms can maintain their lead over foreign competitors.
