not our opinion we know we looked at the competition that was done by the nist national institute of science and technology i believe. and when they did their competition for coming up essentially with a successor for short to fifty six everybody knows that at some point in the future we don't know when but computing power will be so. two fifty six will no longer be a secure hash for four full four were using a four today they're safe you know all those who don't want to worry about forty fifty six right now it's still a very good hash krypto runs on it we love it but shot three. and four for various reasons that were put to the test trained in this competition and shari came out as leader. for example which is a hash used by i was one of the competitors to get shat which is the team that won the sorry competition so the source of all fairy i'm also has a pretty good hash but we believe shot three years the best out there there are no all no no i believe basics that i'm aware of at least at this time so we have a very very healthy community of g.p.u. miners which we love it that goes with the spirit of the

legislation today to reauthorize the national institute of standards and technology, which includes language directing development of artificial intelligence and data science. national institute and technology, which includes language directing development of artificial intelligence and data science. there's immense potential for agi to help humans and to help our economy and all of the issues we're dealing with today. that potential is also accompanied by some of the concerns we will discuss today. i look forward to what our panel has to share with us about the bright as well as the challenging sides of the future with agi. i now recognize mr. lipinski for his opening statement. >> thank you, chairwoman comstock. thank you for holding this hearing to understand the current state of artificial intelligence technology. capacity to perform new and more complicated tasks is quickly advancing. ai is the stuff of dreams or nightmares, depending on who you ask. i believe it's definitely the former and i strongly fear it could also be the latter. science fiction fantasy world depicted on hollywood big and small screens alike capture imaginations about what the wo

national institute of standards and technology. to continue supporting the development of artificial intelligence and data science, including the development of machine learning and other artificial intelligence applications. it is simply vital to our nation's future that we accelete quantum computing and artificial intelligence efforts. thank you, madam chair. i yield back. >> thank you. and i now recognize -- let's see where we are. the gentleman from texas, mr. veesy, for an opening statement. >> thank you for holding this hearing today and thank you for all the witnesses for providing expertise on this topic. i'm looking forward to hearing what everyone has to say today. america, of course, is a country of innovation. in the digital world of today, more and more industries are relying on advanced technologies and connective to overcome challenges. impacting every production of commerce. ai has the ability to mimic cognitive function such as problem solving and learning, making it a critical resource as we encounter never-before-seen problems. those in the energy sector have seen improvements in productivity a efficiency and can expect

national science foundation makes will 11,000 grants to universities and other institutions around the country, $8 billion this year, is a part of our effort to stay first in research, science, and technology. then one more example. in the fiscal year 2018 for the third straight year, the labor, health, and human services subcommittee chaired by senator blunt and senator murray have provided record funding for the national institutes of health and boy medical research. $2 billion in the first year, $2 billion the second year, $2 billion the third year, and in addition to that, money from the 21st century cures act to focus on precision medicine and on the cancer moon shot, among other things. senator blunt has said there's a 23% increase over three years. so i would say to my friend in nashville and to others who may not have noticed, this quiet development, that this republican congress and the democratic members of congress as well as understand that a principle reason why this country produces 24% of all the mo enin the world -- of the money in the world with just 5% of the people, the principle reason for this extraordinary concentration of brainpower in the united states has been supp
