Topics
Katherine Boyle: 美国活力并非仅限于某个行业或领域,而是一种贯穿美国生活和领导力的理念,它投资于支持国家利益的企业,涵盖国防、公共安全、教育、住房、供应链以及工业和制造业等领域。 Rahul Sidhu: 美国活力意味着为所有来到美国的人创造机会,让他们能够解决社区问题并获得公平的回报,这反映了他自身移民家庭的经历。 Mike Slagh: 美国活力是一种新的叙事,它吸引了一批新的创业者,他们致力于建设美国,维护西方价值观,并促进自由民主的繁荣。它也为那些在医疗、教育和国防等领域拥有专业知识的人提供了机会。 Doug Beck: 美国活力是将公共部门、私营部门和学术界的力量结合起来,以应对国家安全挑战,并以美国的方式捍卫国际体系,这与二战和冷战时期美国科技发展的模式类似。 Nand Mulchandani: 新兴技术,如人工智能和生物技术,将在国家安全领域产生巨大影响,并且在融合、太空和核能等领域也存在令人兴奋的创新。 Kathryn Huff: 美国正在以更具创新性和效率的方式发展核技术,采用更现代化的商业模式和项目策略,这包括各种先进的反应堆技术。 Wyatt Smith: 美国活力最大的挑战之一是我们对自身创造力的限制,以及允许短期或分裂性因素阻碍我们完成艰巨、雄心勃勃和重要的事情。另一个挑战是获得长期投资,特别是对于像核电站这样需要长期投资的项目。 Chris Bennett: 在人工智能和其他技术的快速发展中,确保所有美国公民都能参与其中至关重要,需要考虑如何支持那些在医疗、社会和经济方面有需求的人。 We All Do: 我们应该共同努力,找到我们对公共安全的共同愿望,并致力于寻找解决方案,即使我们对解决方案的具体方法存在分歧。重要的是要对工作充满自豪感,并为解决问题而努力。
