America has been the undisputed global leader in science and technology over the past century. But this global order is in flux. China's extensive investments and years of strategic planning — including strengthening its intellectual property regimes — has enabled it to catch up to, and in some areas surpass, our capabilities in artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies.

Just imagine military equipment driven by artificial intelligence and operated by quantum computers. The country that gains the lead in these technologies will enjoy towering national security advantages, including in economic and military power.
