Why It Matters

  • This bill institutionalizes an annual intelligence and policy product on China’s AI capabilities, which is a key gap in U.S. government reporting related to China.
  • The report will create a foundation for data-driven export control policy and strategic oversight and signals Congress’s intent to treat AI technology as a critical domain of geopolitical competition, ensuring that the U.S. maintains its technological and security advantage over China in emerging AI systems.
  • The report will also elevate a common level of understanding in Congress and across the executive branch about where China’s AI capabilities stand and how they compare to the United States and our allies.

“The United States is in a global race with the Chinese Communist Party for leadership in advanced technology like artificial intelligence. To maintain America’s edge on chips and AI models, policymakers need to know where China’s AI ecosystem is advancing and use that knowledge to craft export controls and other policies that protect American innovation. FDD Action is proud to endorse this bill because an annual China AI power report would be an indispensable resource for Congress, the executive branch, and the American people.”
