US President Donald Trump unveiled a plan to turn the United States into the world capital of artificial intelligence, featuring initiatives to ease regulations and prioritize government contracts.
Main Goals of the Plan
The plan, published by the White House, includes three main pillars. One of the key goals is to protect freedom of speech within AI frameworks, with the Department of Commerce leading this initiative in collaboration with the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
Infrastructure and Energy Development
The plan emphasizes the construction of data centers for AI infrastructure, which includes expediting the approval process for these facilities. It also aims to develop alternative energy-generation technologies, such as nuclear fusion and fission.
Global AI Development Control
The plan implies strengthening export controls on AI systems and trade policies through collaboration between various US government agencies. This aims at promoting American AI systems and standards globally.
The Trump administration's plan is aimed at positioning the US as a leader in artificial intelligence, focusing on technology development, free speech protection, and international competitiveness.
