Scale AI CEO A.W issues stark warning about US Pace With China AI

While the US holds an edge in computing power, one of the key areas of the AI race, Wang said the competition with China is neck-and-neck on algorithms — and we’re falling behind on data.

“The United States needs a strategy for data dominance,” he emphasized. “We need an approach both in the public and private sectors to win on data.”

He has several ideas that would help our government compete. The first is to establish an information reserve that would allow data to be shared between agencies and help train AI.

Another is to integrate AI into the government — what Wang calls an “agentic” approach — with the goals of streamlining processes, like energy permitting, and strengthening national security.

“I’m advocating for AI agents to make the federal government more efficient,” he said.
