WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump has announced a clean low regulation plan that aims to keep the United States ahead of China in the race for artificial intelligence.
Its strategy focuses on reducing rules, accelerating innovation and facilitating future technology for US companies.
In an event in Washington, Trump said it was time for the United States to guide the world in AI, just as it did once during the space race.
Trump’s 25 -page “USA Action Plan” outlines a three -purpose outline: accelerating innovation, building infrastructure, and moving internationally on AI.
The administration considers AI’s development important for maintaining economic and military supremacy. The planning document relieves environmental results.
“The United States is the country that launched the AI race, and as the President of the United States, I am here today to declare that the United States is about to win it,” Trump told the AI event in Washington.
“Winning this competitiveness will be a test of our abilities since the rising of the space,” he said, before signing numerous executive orders to give the strategy components extra legal weight.
In the reservoir of more than 90 government proposals, Trump’s plan has called for irregularities, in which the administration has promised “removal of red tapes and rigorous regulations”, which can hinder the development of the private sector.
In his widespread speech, Trump insisted that “winning the AI race will demand a new spirit of patriotism and national loyalty beyond.”
Trump complained that for a long time, “many of our largest tech companies received the blessings of American independence by building their factories in China, hiring workers in India and reducing profits in Ireland.”
‘Single quality’
The project also urges federal agencies to find ways to prevent US states from implementing their AI regulations legally and threatened to return federal aid to states that they do.
“We have to have a single federal standard, not 50 different states, organizing this future industry,” Trump said.
The American Civil Liberties Union has warned that it will “thwart measures to maintain civil rights and to protect communities from prejudiced AI systems in areas such as employment, education, health care and policing.”
The Trump Action Plan also calls for the AI system to be “free from ideological prejudice” and instead the administration is designed to achieve objective truths rather than “social engineering agenda”, such as diversity and joining.
This standard will be applied to AI companies seeking business with the US government.
Trump also called for a widespread immunity from copyright claims to AI’s development – currently the topic of legal battles – saying it was a “common understanding” perspective.
He said, “You cannot expect a successful AI program when every article, book, or something else you have read or studied, you have to pay the price.”
The project, a major focus, includes the construction of AI infrastructure, which includes smooth permission for data centers and energy facilities that will ignore environmental concerns to maximize construction.
The administration, which rejects international science to disclose the rising climate crisis, has proposed to create a new environmental review for the construction of a data center and increase access to federal land for AI infrastructure development.
Trump also called for the rapid construction of coal and nuclear plants to help provide the energy needed to provide electricity to the data centers.
‘Gulded Edge’
The strategy also calls for “fighting Chinese influence in international rule” and strengthening export control over advanced AI computing technology.
At the same time, the strategy calls on the government to make US technology a champion in conquering markets abroad, which is a priority introduced in an executive order.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in a statement, “These plans will ensure that the United States decides the standard of technical gold worldwide, and the world is operating on US technology.”
Critics of the project said these policies are a gift for US -tech giants that are pushing their goals to emit zero carbon to meet severe computing needs for AI.
“Trump’s plan reads like a twisted Golded Edge Playbok, which punishes daily Americans and the environment,” said Jane SU, the center of biological diversity.
