The National Security Commission on Artificial Intelligence (NSCAI) was an independent commission of the United States of America established in 2018 to make recommendations to the President and Congress to "advance the development of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and associated technologies to comprehensively address the national security and defense needs of the United States". It issued its final report in March 2021, saying that the U.S. is not sufficiently prepared to defend or compete against China in the AI era. The report's recommendations include: dramatically increasing non-defense federal spending on AI research and development, doubling every year from $2 billion in 2022, to $32 billion in 2026. That would bring it up to a level similar to spending on biomedical research creation of a Digital Corps to bring skilled tech workers into government; founding of a Digital Service Academy: an accredited university providing subsidized education in exchange for a commitment to work for a time in government include civil rights and civil liberty reports for new AI systems or major updates to existing systems; expanding allocations of employment-based green cards, and giving them to every AI Ph.D. graduate from an accredited U.S. university; reforming the acquisition management system Department of Defense to make it faster and easier to introduce new technologies.
