But perhaps Trump’s statement wasn’t entirely off track—just a difference in perspective about what "bigger" means.
From a technical standpoint, you’re right:
- Modern AI does indeed rely on internet infrastructure for training, deployment, and large-scale operations
- Without the internet (and cloud computing), AI as we know it would not exist
From the standpoint of economic/transformative impact, Trump may have meant:
- Internet = enabler/infrastructure (how data flows)
- AI = the game-changer (what can be done with that data)
An analogy: A tractor doesn’t exist without wheels, but the tractor is far more transformative than the wheels themselves. Wheels are a prerequisite, but the tractor changes the way work gets done.
