My Herald Review advocates for the establishment of a National Computing Reserve in the United States to support the growing needs of artificial intelligence (AI) systems. Such a reserve would ensure the country has the computational power and infrastructure necessary to maintain its leadership in AI innovation and national security.

The article highlights how AI-driven technologies are critical for various sectors, including defense, healthcare, and research. However, the increasing demand for computational resources risks outpacing current capacities, causing delays and inefficiencies in AI development.

A National Computing Reserve would address these challenges by providing scalable, secure, and accessible resources for government agencies, universities, and private enterprises. This centralized approach could also enhance collaboration between stakeholders, fostering innovation and reducing redundant investments.

The report emphasizes the geopolitical implications of AI leadership, noting that countries like China are making significant investments in AI infrastructure. The USA must act swiftly to avoid falling behind in the global AI race.

While the proposal is ambitious and resource-intensive, experts argue that the long-term benefits—ranging from economic growth to enhanced national security—make it a strategic necessity.
