Gina Raimondo

Let's resolve right here, right now, to do it differently this time.

Here's good news.

History also shows that when the stakes are high enough, America reinvents.

After World War II, record public investment in research seeded new industries.

COVID accelerated growth in clean energy, in health care.

AI is a hundred-year technology and needs a hundred-year response so that all Americans can reap the benefits of an AI economy.

Why am I optimistic?

Because if we're a country that can design the best chips in the world, create the best models in the world and spend trillions of dollars to build out our AI infrastructure, then we're up to this challenge.

because here's the reality.

And you know this.

Our future isn't predetermined.

It's ours to create.

It's why you're all here.

So let's get to work.

Thank you.
