CSET’s Jack Corrigan shared his expert analysis in an op-ed published by Tech Policy Press. In his piece, he highlights the ongoing antitrust trial against Google and the broader implications for the future of the U.S. artificial intelligence industry.

Wuhan, China’s inland metropolis, is paving the way for a nationwide rollout of “embodied” artificial intelligence meant to fast-track scientific discovery, optimize production, streamline commerce, and facilitate state supervision of social activities. Grounded in real-world data, the AI grows smarter, offering a pathway to artificial “general” intelligence that will reinforce state ideology and boost economic goals. This report documents the genesis of Wuhan’s AGI initiative and its multifaceted deployment.

Maintaining long-term U.S. leadership in artificial intelligence will require policymakers to foster a diversified, contestable, and competitive market for AI systems. Today, however, incumbent technology companies maintain a distinct advantage in the production of large AI models, and they have the means and motion to use their control over key chokepoints in the AI supply chain (compute, data, foundation models, distribution channels) to stifle competition. This report explores the associated economic and national security risks, and offers recommendations for maintaining an open and competitive AI industry.

CSET’s Helen Toner shared her expert insights in an article published by Foreign Policy. The article explores the impact of renewed U.S. export restrictions on Nvidia and the broader implications for U.S.-China competition in artificial intelligence (AI). Nvidia announced it expects a $5.5 billion financial hit due to new licensing requirements for selling its H20 chips to China.

John Bansemer and Kyle Miller shared their expert analysis in a report published by the International Institute for Strategic Studies. In their piece, they highlight the release of DeepSeek’s open-weight AI model “R1” in January 2025 and its major impact on global AI competition, especially between China and the United States.

Sam Bresnick and Jack Corrigan shared their expert analysis in an op-ed published by The National Interest. In their piece, they discussed the need for the United States to rebalance its economy by better integrating software and hardware to compete with China and boost growth.

What will it take for the U.S. to win the global technology race? From artificial intelligence to biotechnology, the stakes are high — and the time to act is now. Join leading voices from the worlds of government, industry, and policy for an afternoon of candid conversation about the forces shaping the next era of innovation and competition.

In response to the Office of Science and Technology Policy's request for input on an AI Action Plan, CSET provides key recommendations for advancing AI research, ensuring U.S. competitiveness, and maximizing benefits while mitigating risks. Our response highlights policies to strengthen the AI workforce, secure technology from illicit transfers, and foster an open and competitive AI ecosystem.

CSET's Zachary Arnold and Jacob Feldgoise shared their expert insights in an article published by Nature. The article explores China's increasing presence in basic research on future computing hardware, which could influence the global landscape of high-performance microchip design and production.

In their op-ed in Newsweek, William Hannas and Huey-Meei Chang discussed the ongoing challenge of China’s technology acquisition and the complexities of U.S.-China collaboration in artificial intelligence (AI).
