In a speech on September 25th at the Economic Club of Pittsburgh, Harris made it clear that the U.S. should not fall behind in these areas.
Instead, she believes the country needs to lead the way in blockchain, AI, quantum computing, and clean energy innovation.
America’s Future in Technology
During her speech, Harris said: “We will invest in biomanufacturing and aerospace, remain dominant in AI and quantum computing, blockchain, and other emerging technologies.” She emphasized the need to not only invent these technologies but also to build them here in the United States. This, she said, would create jobs and ensure that American workers are part of the next wave of technological breakthroughs.
Harris pointed out that the U.S. is in a race with other countries, particularly China, to lead in future industries. “We want to make sure America, not China, wins the competition for the 21st century,” she stated. In other words, Harris believes the U.S. should take the bull by the horns when it comes to developing and leading in tech innovation.

In an 82-page economic plan released alongside her speech, Harris touched on the importance of fostering technologies like AI and digital assets. She believes that while the U.S. should support innovation, it also needs to put rules in place to make sure consumers are safe. In her view, new tech should be both exciting and secure.
The Big Picture
Harris’ message is clear: the U.S. must stay at the forefront of technology. Whether it’s blockchain, AI, or clean energy, she wants America to lead the way. She sees these industries as key to the country’s future success, helping to create jobs and drive the economy forward.
Harris believes that if the U.S. stays ahead, it can keep its edge in global competition. With her focus on investing in American innovation, she’s aiming to make sure the next generation of tech isn’t just developed, but built, right here at home.
