"Americans have not yet grappled with just how profoundly the artificial intelligence revolution will impact our economy, national security, and welfare..."

-Letter from the Chair and Vice-Chair, Final Report on AI (2021)

The Final Report on AI 2021, released by the National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence is an extensive report outlining the AI landscape between the US and other AI-enabled nations, such as China and Russia. Its main message is that the US is not prepared to defend or compete in the AI era.

This report is split into two parts: Part I, "Defending America in the AI Era," focuses on implications and applications for AI for defense and national security; Part II, "Winning the Technology Competition," describes actions the US government must take to improve national AI competitiveness and protect critical US advantages in the bigger strategic competition with China.

Students of national security, policymakers, academics, journalists and anyone eager to understand the importance of AI, will find this report an essential resource.

The NATIONAL SECURITY COMMISSION ON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE is an independent US commission set up to make recommendations to the President and Congress to advance the development of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and associated technologies to comprehensively address the national security and defense needs of the United States.
