"Artificial intelligence is the future. Whoever becomes the leader in this sphere will become the ruler of the world."

"We are putting them at a disadvantage if we fail to equip them with the best capabilities and technology."

"Our adversaries are heavily invested in emerging technologies through expanded research and development, recruiting top scientists, and stealing our intellectual property."

"The work that you and the men and women in your enterprises do to transform our capabilities and technology through research and development will be the defining factor in future conflicts."
