Donald J. Trump

I can't stand it.

I don't even like the name.

You know, I don't like anything that's artificial.

So could we straighten that out, please?

We should change the name.

I actually mean that.

I don't like the name artificial anything because it's not artificial.

It's genius.

It's pure genius.

And its potential to transform every type of human endeavor and domain of human knowledge from medicine to manufacturing to warfare and national defense.

Whether we like it or not, we're suddenly engaged in a fast-paced competition to build and define this groundbreaking technology that will determine so much about the future of civilization itself because of the genius and creativity of Silicon Valley.

And it is incredible.

Incredible genius, without question the most brilliant place anywhere on Earth.

America is the country that started the AI race, and as President of the United States, I'm here today to declare that America is going to win it.

We're gonna work hard, we're gonna win it.

Because we will not allow any foreign nation to beat us.

Our children will not live on a planet controlled by the algorithms of the adversaries advancing values and interests contrary to our own.

We don't want to have contrary interests.

We want to get along.

And we'll get along with other countries.
