America must win the AI race -- and prepare for the worst

White House'A.I. and crypto czar' David Sacks addresses the'major plank' in President Donald Trump's new A.I. action plan to dominate China on'The Story.' Artificial intelligence is no longer a niche tool for tech labs or science-fiction thrillers. It's now the battleground where the future of American power, prosperity, and freedom will be decided. With the release of "Winning the AI Race: America's AI Action Plan," the Trump administration is rightfully treating this moment as the 21st-century equivalent of the space race or the nuclear age. This bold strategy outlines over 90 policy actions that span three key pillars: Accelerating Innovation, Building American AI Infrastructure, and Leading in International Diplomacy and Security. Each of these pillars sends a clear message to the world: America intends to lead – not follow – on artificial intelligence. This is a race we can't afford to lose.
