Jacob Helberg outlines America’s AI race strategy: superior models, global market share, secure supply chains, and tariffs.
In a16z’s Deep Dives, Jacob Helberg argues that the technology conflict has two fronts: software and hardware, with Huawei and ZTE illustrating why control of internet infrastructure affects national sovereignty. He says America can win the AI race only by leading in model quality, securing the largest user base, and building resilient supply chains, supported by initiatives including Pax Silicon and the AI expert program. Helberg defends tariffs as a national-security recalibration after the loss of 60,000 manufacturing plants and more than 2 million jobs, noting a former annual trade deficit exceeding $1 trillion with the top 12 partners and rising U.S. capital investment. He also frames compute as the 21st century’s oil, citing potential 3–6% annual growth, Middle Eastern energy partnerships, and the need to overcome mineral bottlenecks through reindustrialization and alliances.
