当地时间周六，宾夕法尼亚州联邦参议员、民主党人约翰·费特曼驳斥了“人工智能末日论”，并警告称，在美中两国争夺人工智能主导权的竞争中，美国的“过度反应”会让中国渔翁得利。
费特曼在X平台上分享了一篇文章，该文章援引彭博社的分析，称美国在人工智能竞赛中对中国的领先优势正在缩小，而中国企业部署先进人工智能模型的速度更快。
这位宾夕法尼亚州民主党人针对这份报告表态称，人工智能的发展对国家安全至关重要。
“人工智能霸权与能源主导权是我们国家安全的根基。”费特曼写道。

费特曼补充称，在这项新兴技术上退缩只会让美国的竞争对手受益。
“中国持续借由我们的过度反应壮大自身并从中获益。”他写道，“我反对围绕数据中心或人工智能末日论的政治讨好与夸张言辞。”
周六的这条发文是费特曼最新一次呼吁美国积极推进人工智能发展的表态。

费特曼的立场与特朗普基本一致，两人都认为美国需要加快人工智能发展步伐，并扩大本国的数据中心基础设施。
本月早些时候，有报道称佛蒙特州联邦参议员伯尼·桑德斯正考虑暂停人工智能发展，费特曼对此回应称，这样的举措会正中中国下怀。
“美国必须在人工智能开发领域占据领先地位，否则我们将生活在中国制定的规则之下。”费特曼写道，“这种情况绝不能发生。”
费特曼还一直支持数据中心的建设。今年3月，他反对在美国暂停新建人工智能数据中心的提议，抨击该提案是“亲华优先”。
他的这番表态正值美国总统唐纳德·特朗普本周早些时候呼吁各州州长与地方官员欢迎人工智能数据中心建设之后。

“这些建设岗位数量极其庞大。我们正在建设全球规模最大的相关工厂。我可以说，如果我是某个城镇的市长或是某个州的州长，有机会引进一座大型人工智能工厂或数据中心，我绝对会抓住这个机会，因为这些岗位数量庞大，带来的薪资与税收收入也极其可观。”特朗普周三在白宫表示。
美国总统还表示，鉴于美国民众对在自家社区附近建设数据中心表达了担忧，人工智能行业“需要一点公关帮助”。
五月份的一项盖洛普民调显示，大多数美国人反对在自家附近新建数据中心。
受访的反对者给出的理由包括数据中心会消耗大量电力与水资源，以及可能对环境造成影响。

特朗普于七月份签署了一项行政命令，旨在加快数据中心的审批流程。
在人工智能监管方面，特朗普表示该行业“规模可能超过互联网”。
“我们目前在人工智能领域遥遥领先。我们希望保持这一优势。我们希望进行监管，但我们希望监管能够让行业继续保持领先，而不是出台会扼杀这个极其重要的行业的监管措施。”特朗普说道。

Fetterman aligns with Trump on AI push, warns China benefits from US ‘overreaction’
The Pennsylvania Democrat argued AI supremacy and energy dominance underpin national security as US lead narrows

Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., on Saturday dismissed “AI doomsdaying,” warning that China benefits from “overreaction” by the United States as the two countries compete for dominance in artificial intelligence.
Fetterman shared an article on X highlighting a Bloomberg analysis examining what it described as the narrowing U.S. lead over China in the AI race and the faster pace at which Chinese companies are deploying advanced models.
The Pennsylvania Democrat reacted to the report by arguing that advancements in AI are critical to national security.
“AI supremacy and energy dominance underpins our national security,” Fetterman wrote.

Fetterman added that pulling back on the emerging technology would only benefit America’s competitors.
“China continues to fuel and benefit from our overreaction,” he wrote. “I reject the political pandering and hyperbole over data centers or AI doomsdaying.”
Saturday’s post was Fetterman’s latest call for the U.S. to aggressively pursue AI development.

Fetterman’s stance puts the Pennsylvania Democrat largely in step with Trump on the need to accelerate AI development and expand the nation’s data center infrastructure.
Earlier this month, Fetterman reacted to an article reporting that Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was eyeing a potential pause on AI development, arguing such a move would be welcomed by China.
“America must lead in the development of AI, otherwise we live under China’s rules,” Fetterman wrote. “That must not happen.”
Fetterman has also championed the development of data centers. In March, he pushed back against the prospect of imposing a moratorium on new AI data centers in the U.S., blasting the proposal as “China First.”
His comments came after President Donald Trump earlier this week encouraged governors and local officials to welcome the construction of AI data centers.

“The construction jobs are enormous. We’re building the biggest plants anywhere in the world. And I can say, if I were the mayor of a town or the governor of a state, and I had a chance to get a big plant in an AI plant or a data center, I would absolutely want it because the jobs are enormous, and the money paid, the taxes paid are just enormous,” Trump said at the White House on Wednesday.
The president also said the AI industry needs “a little public relations help” as Americans have expressed concerns about data centers being built in their communities.
A Gallup poll from May found a majority of Americans opposed the construction of new data centers near where they live.
Those surveyed who opposed the facilities cited concerns including their electricity and water consumption and potential environmental impact.

Trump signed an executive order in July aimed at expediting the permitting process for data centers.
Regarding the regulation of AI, Trump suggested the industry “may be bigger than the internet.”
“We’re leading by a lot with AI. We want to keep it that way. We want to regulate, but we want to have regulation where they can continue to lead, not regulation that’s going to stifle a very important industry,” Trump said.
