Report: U.S. Needs a National AI Strategy -- Campus Technology

If the United States wants to maintain its leadership stance in the world for development and use of artificial intelligence, it's time to adopt a national strategy. That's the conclusion of a report developed by the Center for Data Innovation, a self-described thinktank that studies the "intersection of data, technology and public policy." According to Senior Policy Analyst Joshua New, finding success with AI requires more than a bunch of companies investing in it. It also needs the federal government to support the development and adoption of AI in areas such as research, skills development and data usage. According to New, many other countries, including China, France and the United Kingdom, are setting up "significant initiatives" to grab global market share in AI.
