We argue, the United States must act decisively to maintain its lead in the critical emerging field of developing Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). This memo outlines key steps to ensure U.S. dominance in AGI, focusing on:Accelerating AGI development: Launching "moonshot" programs akin to the Apollo Program, Manhattan Project, and Operation Warp Speed to drive rapid innovation.Securing necessary resources: Implementing robust short and long-term funding strategies and infrastructure investments.Establishing offensive and defensive strategies: Protecting U.S. AGI technologies while mitigating potential threats.Key questions addressed:How can the United States maintain its edge in the face of China's growing AGI capabilities?What organizational structures and funding mechanisms will best support AGI development?How can the United States proactively address the national security implications of AGI?Read the full Memo here: https://www.scsp.ai/reports/memostothepresident/artificial-general-intelligence/ Check out their conversation on the SCSP YouTube channel!Memos to the President Podcast is a product of the Special Competitive Studies Project.
