Radha Plumb, former chief digital and AI officer of the Pentagon, cautioned that the U.S. must expedite its AI advancements to maintain its technological edge over adversaries like China. Speaking at the Johns Hopkins University summit, she highlighted the need for an integrated approach involving government and industry collaboration to foster a competitive ecosystem. Plumb warned that delays in implementing AI technologies and hardware procurement could allow China to dominate in critical tech sectors, compromising U.S. and allied advantages.
The U.S. must accelerate AI development or risk losing technological superiority to adversaries like China, emphasized Radha Plumb at the technology summit.
Plumb stressed the need for a cohesive ecosystem combining multiple tech elements to maintain a competitive edge against China's advancements.
She expressed concern that the moment for the U.S. to build advanced AI capabilities is fleeting, likening it to the slow rollout of 5G technology.
If the necessary hardware and applications for AI ecosystems fall into Chinese hands, it could undermine U.S. competitiveness and national security.
