Summary

Palantir's CTO, Shyam Sankar, warns that America's biggest threat in the AI race with China is not Beijing, but domestic resistance to new data centers and their power demands. He argues that the U.S. risks slowing its own technological progress due to these internal obstacles, rather than falling behind China. Sankar emphasizes the need to deploy existing AI technologies across the economy to generate prosperity, comparing the current situation to the early days of electricity.
