Wyoming — standing in full

Wyoming is the #50 state by economic size ($47bn GSP) and ranks #51/51 on absolute State Power and #48/51 on per-capita intensity. No pillar stands out as a clear strength; the binding concern is research.

Index & pillar read

Index / pillarValueStandingWhat a high vs low value means — and where Wyoming sits
SPI State Power5.6Lagging · #51/51Low here — limited absolute weight — a smaller node leaning on capacity built in larger states.
▲ high: a heavyweight that anchors national AI capacity and pulls in capital and talent  ·  ▼ low: limited absolute weight — a smaller node leaning on capacity built in larger states
SCC State Coefficient14.5Lagging · #48/51Low here — thin intensity per resident — capability is sparse relative to population.
▲ high: deep capability per resident — a concentrated, high-intensity AI economy  ·  ▼ low: thin intensity per resident — capability is sparse relative to population
SDI State Agentic16.6Lagging · #48/51Low here — agentic deployment is shallow — the local agent lever is under-used.
▲ high: agents are widely deployed locally — a near-term productivity multiplier  ·  ▼ low: agentic deployment is shallow — the local agent lever is under-used
Talent Talent15.7Lagging · #45/51Low here — a shallow talent base that constrains how much can be built locally.
▲ high: a deep talent pool — the scarcest input to building AI  ·  ▼ low: a shallow talent base that constrains how much can be built locally
Capital Capital9.4Lagging · #48/51Low here — thin investment — good ideas struggle to scale locally.
▲ high: abundant capital flowing into building cognitive infrastructure  ·  ▼ low: thin investment — good ideas struggle to scale locally
Research Research10.7Lagging · #49/51Low here — a weak research base — fewer home-grown breakthroughs and spinouts.
▲ high: a strong research base feeding a pipeline of ideas and people  ·  ▼ low: a weak research base — fewer home-grown breakthroughs and spinouts
Infrastructure Infrastructure20.2Lagging · #47/51Low here — infrastructure gaps cap how much AI can actually be run locally.
▲ high: the physical and digital rails to run AI at scale are in place  ·  ▼ low: infrastructure gaps cap how much AI can actually be run locally
Agentic Agentic16.6Lagging · #48/51Low here — little agentic deployment — the near-term lever is unused.
▲ high: agents are actively deployed — an early-mover productivity edge  ·  ▼ low: little agentic deployment — the near-term lever is unused

Strengths to build on

  • No pillar stands out as a clear strength yet.

Risk factors

  • Binding weakness — Research 10.7 (#49/51, Lagging): a weak research base — fewer home-grown breakthroughs and spinouts.
