The Trump administration revealed an ambitious 28-page plan for artificial intelligence (AI) development, covering over 90 policy measures with potential for rapid implementation in the coming year.
The key objective of the document is positioning the United States as a world leader in the technological race. According to David Sacks, a leading technology expert in the administration, the plan aims to win the global "AI competitions".
The strategy envisions several main directions: • Building modern technological infrastructure • Promoting American AI technologies • Reviewing existing regulatory restrictions • Prevention against AI technology misuse
The White House emphasizes the need to remove "ideological biases" in AI systems. According to the official statement, AI development must be as free from artificial social constraints as possible.
The plan openly demonstrates geopolitical ambition to outpace China in technological development. Sacks categorically states that artificial intelligence is a revolutionary technology with deep impact on the economy and national security.
Despite ambitious goals, experts are divided about the approach. Sarah Myers West from the AI Institute criticizes the document as being "written by tech billionaires for tech billionaires".
A substantial part of the plan is related to international export of American AI technologies. Trump is expected to sign three executive orders that will regulate this process.
An interesting detail is that the document was formed based on over 10,000 public comments, which shows an attempt at broad consultation.
Former Biden administration officials express concerns that removing control mechanisms could turn the AI revolution into a "reckless adventure".
An additional emphasis is Trump's decision to allow Nvidia to restore sales of high-tech AI chips to China, which further complicates the geopolitical technological landscape.
AI regulation remains a key issue in political discussions. The initial bill even provided for a ten-year moratorium on state regulation, which was subsequently removed.
The administration's ultimate goal is clear – to position the US as a leading force in global AI development while ensuring maximum freedom for innovation.
