In a recent summit held in Washington, Donald Trump, president of the United States, has not hesitated a second to launch the final message: The United States is the pioneer and winner in artificial intelligence, and thus will continue.
His phrase «USA will have as a policy to do whatever it is to lead the world in artificial intelligence», of course it leaves no doubt that rivals like China will have very difficult things, or so they believe, to continue their sorpaso.
Specifically, Trump points to three axes:
- Accelerate the pace of innovation with less regulatory obstacles
- Build physical infrastructure, such as data and energy centers, to support the mass development of AI.
- Get American hardware and software to be the global standard base for future advances.
«We will defend our nation, our values, our future and our freedom»
Of courseall this new madness has a clear ally in Silicon Valley and other technological giants, which have supported Trump’s return, see in this plan an opportunity to grow in their development and, therefore, benefits and also get to global domain.
In fact, multimillion -dollar investments were already confirmed, such as the Stargate megaproject, which aspires to build a network of processing centers distributed by several states, with an initial investment exceeding 500,000 million dollars.
In return, the Government promises facilities for these data centers to be created, which consume huge amounts of electricity, and rapid licenses for construction and operation.
The project is so large that it is expected to generate 100,000 jobs immediately and could attract investments for up to three billion dollars. Beyond creating jobs, it seeks to ensure that the United States is at the forefront of the development of the World Cup, with the idea of advancing China on the right.
At the head of all this are personalities such as Sam Altman de Openai, Larry Ellison de Oracle and the NVIDIA managers. On the other hand, one of the most relevant parts is the economic one and that part will be covered by Masayoshi are from SoftBank, which will be the financial responsible for the project, providing capital that in the end promotes that new generation of artificial intelligence.
But not everything is applause and several critical voices warn that this eagerness to «do whatever is necessary» It can put aside ethics, protection of humanity and privacy. Digital rights and unions organizations have requested an alternative plan that puts people ahead before only profits.
Win to China, cost what it costs
Despite all this, there is no one to stop him and the reason is clear: to overcome China. In recent years, this Asian country has invested a lot of money in Ia. The Chinese government wants its country to be number one in this technology by 2030. To achieve it, only in the first half of 2024, more than 237,000 companies related to AI in China were opened.
On the other hand, the market here is growing as the foam and it is expected that by 2025 it will be worth about 400,000 million yuan – about 62,000 million dollars. However, despite all this effort, there is still a year behind the United States in the development of AI models.
Experts say that the US has better data and technology, which gives them advantage, and now, with this huge bet, Donald Trump will try to increase and settle it. «The number one factor that will define whether the United States or China wins this race is the global adoption of its technology,» said Brad Smith, president of Microsoft.
