A bipartisan Senate group has proposed investing $32 billion annually in artificial intelligence (AI) research in the United States to stay ahead of global competitors. Led by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, the group aims to guide lawmakers on AI development's impact on various sectors like jobs, education, healthcare, and national security. The proposal emphasizes the need for significant government and private-sector investment in AI by 2026.
The Senate group's recommendations are backed by a 20-page document titled 'Driving U.S. Innovation in Artificial Intelligence,' outlining the importance of AI research and development. Industry leaders and experts, including CEOs from OpenAI and Meta Platforms, provided input during AI Insight Forums hosted by the group. Concerns about China's dominance in AI research highlight the urgency for the U.S. to boost its investment in this critical technology.
