WASHINGTON -- The U.S. lags behind China in science and engineering graduates, threatening to set America back in AI, SoftBank Group Chief Operating Officer Marcelo Claure said Tuesday.
"My No. 1 concern [with] artificial intelligence in the U.S. is the lack of engineers that we are producing in comparison to other countries like China," said Claure, former CEO and current executive chairman of American telecommunications carrier Sprint, on the second day of a three-day summit promoting foreign investment in the U.S.
