U.S.-China AI Arms Race: Data Centers and National Security
The U.S. and China are engaged in an 'arms race' for artificial intelligence dominance, with data centers playing a crucial role.

China's support for anti-data center movements in the U.S. underscores the strategic importance of this issue for national security.7 sourcesSee all sources
