On the recordMarch 24, 2026
we are at the beginning of the most profound technological revolution in world history, a revolution which will bring unimaginable changes to every aspect of our society. Artificial intelligence and robotics will impact our economy, our political lives, our privacy, our emotional well-being, our environment, and even our survival--the survival of humanity on this planet. The scale, scope, and speed of this change will be unprecedented. That is not the view of Bernie Sanders. That is the view of some of the most knowledgeable people in the world who have developed AI, who study AI. According to Demis Hassabis, the head of Google's DeepMind--the head of Google's DeepMind--the AI revolution will be 10 times bigger than the industrial revolution and 10 times faster. In other words, the AI revolution will have 100 times the impact that the industrial revolution had. People left the farms. They went to work in factories. People left factories. They went to work in offices. According to the head of Google's DeepMind, this revolution will be 100 times more impactful. Mr. President, it is not just what the leaders of the AI companies are saying. Take a look at what they are doing. This year, four--four-- AI companies are spending almost $700 billion to build out data centers across this country. As a percentage of GDP, that is 10 times greater than what we spent each year on Moon landings, going to the Moon.
