U.S. Senate Passes the Innovation and Competition Act

Earlier this month the U.S. Senate passed a rare bi-partisan bill called the United States Innovation and Competition Act, which seeks to improve America's competitive edge by investing billions of dollars in scientific and technological innovations – including artificial intelligence, computer chips and robotics. The bill would boost funding for research and technology manufacturing to increase America's competitiveness, strengthen national security and grow the economy. The bill’s future is uncertain in the U.S. House of Representatives, where the House has a similar bill but it is unlikely that there will not be some kind of compromise between the House and Senate, especially where national security is concerned.
