This is how America ends up being ahead of the rest of world with every new technology breakthrough. They spend a lot of money, lose a lot of money, take risks, and then end up being too far for others to catch up.

Trying to claim victory against AI/US Companies this early is a dangerous move.

I don't think its controversial to say that in net, the US has had a good streak so far with new technologies. Yeah there have been some pretty big misses, but obviously the wins more than make up for them.

The OP said "every" new technology.

I just showed this is not true. There are plenty other examples.
