a16z's @jkhamehl says the US is being outpaced on AI adoption by countries you'd never expect: Bukele put Grok in schools for free while America fights over data centers "El Salvador, President Bukele has been super aggressive around utilizing AI. They implemented Grok in their schools for free. They're utilizing AI doctors." "City-state countries like Singapore or UAE, where it's easier just given the population to adopt technologies and then also make it subsidized or free. You see these different examples around the world where they're accelerating their AI development and adoption way faster than in the US." "In the US we've been seeing a lot of political tail-headwinds with data centers, and in some instances around surveillance, that are just falsehoods." "@elonmusk's building data centers in space. We might also see the influx of a lot of this data center supply chain build-out happen overseas because of the sentiment in the US." @a16z
