White House official, lawmaker call for amplifying US tech policy abroad
"It's very concerning what PRC is doing in the world ... and if we let that become dominant, it is a means of control. And that's why I think that our worldview is that of freedom and of prosperity and a personal choice. And so if we allow our models to dominate, then our worldview begins to dominate," Budd said. "And I think that's what's best for humanity. I think that's what's best for the world."
"We are so blessed right now in this moment in time where the U.S. has the very best chips, it has the very best algorithms, and has the very best applications," he said. "Not only that, we have a world and a market where everybody wants our stuff, and we're in a position to export the most dominant and powerful technology the world has ever seen to so many different buyers."
Exportation of the U.S. technology stack and regulatory regime is presented as central to preserving American AI dominance. The People's Republic of China is identified as the primary foreign competitor with capacity to overtake. U.S. strengths include leading chips, algorithms, and applications combined with global market demand. Exporting those technologies is framed as both an economic opportunity and a means of projecting a worldview of freedom and prosperity. A light-touch regulatory approach is supported to sustain innovation and maintain the U.S. as the technology supplier of choice.
