President Donald Trump’s AI Action Plan aims to bolster U.S. leadership in artificial intelligence by unleashing American companies to innovate swiftly. The 23-page strategy emphasizes slashing federal regulations to remove barriers to rapid data center and energy infrastructure development, critical for AI advancement. States considering new regulations risk losing federal funding. Michael Shepard for Bloomberg News:
The United States is in a race to achieve global dominance in artificial intelligence (AI). Whoever has the largest AI ecosystem will set global AI standards and reap broad economic and military benefits. Just like we won the space race, it is imperative that the United States and its allies win this race. President Trump took decisive steps toward achieving this goal during his first days in office by signing Executive Order 14179, “Removing Barriers to American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence,” calling for America to retain dominance in this global race and directing the creation of an AI Action Plan. Winning the AI race will usher in a new golden age of human flourishing, economic competitiveness, and national security for the American people. AI will enable Americans to discover new materials, synthesize new chemicals, manufacture new drugs, and develop new methods to harness energy — an industrial revolution. It will enable radically new forms of education, media, and communication—an information revolution. And it will enable altogether new intellectual achievements: unraveling ancient scrolls once thought unreadable, making breakthroughs in scientific and mathematical theory, and creating new kinds of digital and physical art—a renaissance. An industrial revolution, an information revolution, and a renaissance—all at once. This is the potential that AI presents. The opportunity that stands before us is both inspiring and humbling. And it is ours to seize, or to lose. America’s AI Action Plan has three pillars: innovation, infrastructure, and international diplomacy and security. The United States needs to innovate faster and more comprehensively than our competitors in the development and distribution of new AI technology across every field, and dismantle unnecessary regulatory barriers that hinder the private sector in doing so. As Vice President Vance remarked at the Paris AI Action Summit in February, restricting AI development with onerous regulation “would not only unfairly benefit incumbents… it would mean paralyzing one of the most promising technologies we have seen in generations.” That is why President Trump rescinded the Biden Administration’s dangerous actions on day one. We need to build and maintain vast AI infrastructure and the energy to power it. To do that, we will continue to reject radical climate dogma and bureaucratic red tape, as the Administration has done since Inauguration Day. Simply put, we need to “Build, Baby, Build!” We need to establish American AI — from our advanced semiconductors to our models to our applications — as the gold standard for AI worldwide and ensure our allies are building on American technology. Several principles cut across each of these three pillars. First, American workers are central to the Trump Administration’s AI policy. The Administration will ensure that our Nation’s workers and their families gain from the opportunities created in this technological revolution. The AI infrastructure buildout will create high-paying jobs for American workers. And the breakthroughs in medicine, manufacturing, and many other fields that AI will make possible will increase the standard of living for all Americans. AI will improve the lives of Americans by complementing their work — not replacing it. Second, our AI systems must be free from ideological bias and be designed to pursue objective truth rather than social engineering agendas when users seek factual information or analysis. AI systems are becoming essential tools, profoundly shaping how Americans consume information, but these tools must also be trustworthy. Finally, we must prevent our advanced technologies from being misused or stolen by malicious actors as well as monitor for emerging and unforeseen risks from AI. Doing so will require constant vigilance. This Action Plan sets forth clear policy goals for near-term execution by the Federal government. The Action Plan’s objective is to articulate policy recommendations that this Administration can deliver for the American people to achieve the President’s vision of global AI dominance. The AI race is America’s to win, and this Action Plan is our roadmap to victory. — Michael J. Kratsios (Assistant to the President for Science and Technology), David O. Sacks (Special Advisor for AI and Crypto), and Marco A. Rubio (Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs) The full 23-page AI Action Plan is here.
