Or that just before Pearl Harbor, when American industry was &#8220;hyperscaling&#8221; its defense infrastructure in order to make the country ready for war, cities and counties had placed restrictions on new plant and shipyard openings and tried to dictate what could be produced where \u2014 as long as it wasn\u2019t near them.<\/p>\n<p>Any commonsense observer in 1940-1941 would know the only beneficiaries of these obstructionist tactics were our nation\u2019s enemies.<\/p>\n<p>That was one kind of war. Today we face another kind, an artificial intelligence (AI) war with China. The aims of both combatants, in looking to dominate the technology that will rule the future, couldn\u2019t be more different. While U.S. companies and the Trump administration see AI as a tool to make the world more prosperous and individuals freer and more autonomous; China\u2019s goal in the AI sector is developing the tools to further enslave their own population while shaping a global hegemony &#8220;with Chinese characteristics,&#8221; i.e. total control by Beijing.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/blanche-urged-investigate-alleged-foreign-influence-fight-against-data-centers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>BLANCHE URGED TO INVESTIGATE ALLEGED FOREIGN INFLUENCE IN FIGHT AGAINST DATA CENTERS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>China and the U.S. are the only two countries poised to dominate the future of AI. Between them they control 90% of AI compute capacity; yet America\u2019s share comes to 75% compared to just 15% for China. It\u2019s true China has focused on key applications in industrial use of AI, and also in treating AI as a decisive military and strategic asset. But the U.S. is still dominant in generative AI and AI innovation, and is moving fast to make up ground in the industrial and military spheres.<\/p>\n<p>But not if the power needed to drive and expand our advantage economically and strategically, isn\u2019t there.<\/p>\n<p>How big is the data center ban movement? Some 78 local jurisdictions across the country have set up temporary moratoriums or bans on new data centers. While New York is the only state to actually impose a new construction moratorium, 14 other states are considering similar measures, including red states like Florida, Oklahoma, and Georgia.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/politics\/marxist-organizer-leads-fight-against-virginia-ai-data-center-foreign-influence-concerns-mount\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>MARXIST ORGANIZER LEADS CAMPAIGN AGAINST VIRGINIA AI DATA CENTER AS FOREIGN INFLUENCE CONCERNS MOUNT<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If this movement grows and gets the backing of a major political party like the Democrats; and temporary bans become permanent; the only clear winner will be China, just as banning building defense plants in World War Two would have benefited Nazi Germany and imperial Japan.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not just the future of our economy that\u2019s at stake: in Georgia\u2019s case alone, some 552,000 jobs and $850 million in tax revenue if a ban goes into effect. It\u2019s also our <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/executive\/national-security\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">national security<\/a>. I\u2019d argue, even freedom itself.<\/p>\n<p>Yet the ban movement itself is built on myths and lies.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/politics\/top-energy-group-warns-wealthy-foreigners-potentially-bankrolling-anti-data-center-campaigns-across-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>TOP ENERGY GROUP WARNS WEALTHY FOREIGNERS ARE POTENTIALLY BANKROLLING ANTI-DATA CENTER CAMPAIGNS ACROSS US<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Likewise, far from being a drain on the public fisc, tax revenues soar with the additional <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/category\/us\/economy\/growth\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">economic growth<\/a> an AI-supporting data center helps to create.<\/p>\n<p>Nor are the benefits just for billionaires and Big Tech. As a key driver of economic growth and productivity, AI will enable a host of startups and small businesses to compete in the marketplace, including the new recruits to a resurgent U.S. manufacturing sector.<\/p>\n<p>By nearly every estimate, the onset of AI and its <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/opinion\/trumps-reindustrialization-agenda-faces-biggest-hurdle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">supporting data centers<\/a> will add trillions of dollars to the U.S. economy \u2014 as much as an additional 1.5%-3.7% of GDP growth annually.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR MORE FOX NEWS OPINION<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Those are the economic benefits. But AI, and the data centers that will enable its uses to grow and intensify, are also essential for our national security.<\/p>\n<p>One side is AI\u2019s obvious military uses such as &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/politics\/inside-chinas-ai-wolf-pack-drones-built-taiwan-conflict-mind\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">killer drones&#8221; and other battlefield applications<\/a>, as the war in Ukraine is demonstrating. But AI is also a powerful tool for detecting cyber threats, analyzing vast amounts of intelligence data and organizing the logistics for military readiness, not to mention making manufacturing in our defense industrial base more efficient and streamlined, and ready to take on China\u2019s head-on.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, the decisions we make now about the future of data centers, will have a decisive impact on the future of freedom. It\u2019s crucial that Americans choose the right path, one that truly benefits us and future generations; not the bureaucrats of the Chinese Communist Party.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/person\/h\/arthur-herman\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM ARTHUR HERMAN<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/war-data-centers-jeopardizes-economy-national-security\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/war-data-centers-jeopardizes-economy-national-security <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imagine if during World War II, protesters had gathered outside factories making tanks and planes, and tried to shut them down.
