Key Points
Reducing entry barriers in AI development and application can help address concerns both about the degree of industrial concentration and the slow speed of AI diffusion across the economy.
By targeting bottlenecks in the supply of skilled AI analysts, the supply of data, and access to specialized hardware, we can reduce entry barriers which have been inadvertently created by government policies.
Alternative policy frameworks like more stringent antitrust action are inherently higher risk strategies when compared to reducing entry barriers.
“There are significant barriers to entry in AI development that have boosted the market power of incumbent firms. If new startups can successfully compete in the absence of these barriers, it will be a win for innovation, consumers and for the dynamism of the economy as a whole.”
