Today is about opening doors. When the doors open, passions flow, courage blossoms, and dreams are realized. AI inspires.
Use this chapter of your life to sail away with your dreams—to continue to build boldly, and importantly, to safeguard America’s leading position in the world of technology.
As you know, technology supports every business sector today. You saw AI’s potential and created ideas that will shape America’s future in many areas, including healthcare, nutrition, public safety, and beyond.
The first Presidential AI Challenge was broadly welcomed across our nation. More than 20,000 students participated across all 50 states, plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and 49 Department of War schools in 10 countries around the world. And we are just at the beginning.
Artificial intelligence gives our communities access to the largest amount of information ever recorded in humanity’s history. This fundamental democratization of intellect will profoundly altar society: our industries, our social safety net, and even our open-mindedness toward cultural diversity. Wisdom is tolerance, and change will be enhanced at hyper-speed.
AI’s transformative nature opens new possibilities. AI can help us build a stronger community—making our publicly funded social programs more efficient and more effective. It allows us to deliver more personalized education and in turn, will unlock growth in America’s economy.
Keep using artificial intelligence as a muse—to open new pathways, and ultimately, to achieve personal growth and success.
The young finalists here today come from different backgrounds, schools, and communities. Yet you all share something important. You saw a better way, and you chose to act. That spirit—the courage to ask questions, seek innovative solutions, and serve others—is what will continue moving our country forward.
Today is about new beginnings. Don’t be reluctant to push that door open, be bold with your dreams, and brave with your actions.
And now, please welcome Director Kratsios, whose patronage for technology stands out, and whose commitment to keeping America’s children ahead of the AI curve will leave a lasting impression.
