From a small agrarian economy to the world’s leading economic power for over a century—the US at 250 is a story of constant transformation. Today, it maintains the highest income of any populous country.

How does the country sustain this edge in a new era? 🇺🇸 https://t.co/UnmFWMvUsQ

@StanfordHAI The AI Divide 🗺️

More than half of all #US states received under $100M in AI investment, with several recording $0

The #Tech Leader Strategy: Physical proximity to elite talent clusters still dictates where serious AI infrastructure is built

The US #AI landscape is experiencing unprecedented geographic concentration

While AI is a #global topic, deployment of #capital within the #USA is overwhelmingly centralizing to certain localities

🧵 Here is what the latest @stanfordhai data reveals about where $ is flowing 👇

@StanfordHAI The Secondary Hubs 🏔️🗽🍊

Outside of #CA, emerging and established hubs are fighting for the remaining piece of the pie:

• Colorado: $19B
• New York: $13B
• Florida: $6B

These states are carving out distinct niches, but the gap between #1 and #2 is still massive 🌴

The ultimate takeaway for leadership teams? 🤔:

The window for casual experimentation is closed - companies are institutionalizing AI directly into their long-term balance sheets and core infrastructure strategies

Global #AI investment exploded to $581.69B in 2025 - a massive 129.9% YoY surge. Looking past the hype at where the capital is actually moving reveals a fundamental shift: AI is no longer an R&D experiment. It is a core infrastructure & strategy priority.

Here is why 👇

The #M&A Supercycle & Long-Term Growth 📈

#Mergers and acquisitions spiked 132.6% YoY. Incumbents are buying up specialized talent, niche datasets, and IP to defend their moats. Not a temporary blip; it is a structural transformation driving a #investment increases since 2013...

Eight of the world’s ten largest companies now compete in “arenas”—up from just one in 2005.

That’s not a sector shift. It’s structural. Value is concentrating in a small set of fast-growing, high-dynamism spaces.

The companies pulling ahead build capabilities that travel across arenas, and compound over time. https://t.co/IJ0CSb9blo

The next #hyperscaler moat isn't just talent or models, it's power procurement: We're rapidly becoming AI-rich but energy-poor

Tech companies bidding for #gigawatts means energy poverty and displacement anxiety is a core board-level discussion 🔌📉

HAL 9000 set the template in 2001 A Space Odyssey. Calm. Logical. Helpful - right up until it wasn’t.

"I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that."

HAL’s sin was misaligned objectives: to complete the mission at all costs

🦺 We’ve been writing AI safety papers ever since...
