"And AI has given them the ability to lever up their productivity," Sankar added. "They have improved yields 50%. They've reduced downtime on machines 20%. They're able to produce more. And if we think about the geopolitical context that we exist within, we're in a competition with China. We want to bring these jobs back to America.
