Donald Trump revealed on Wednesday “The Action of Action of America’s AI”, a collection of more than 90 political recommendations designed to guarantee that the country remains competitive with regard to the development of artificial intelligence, some of which would loosen the regulations concerning the development of data centers and encourage the rapid adoption of technology in different sectors. “We think we are in an AI race,” said David Sacks, the Tsar of the White House AI during a call with journalists. “We want the United States to win this race.”
The 23 -page plan is divided into three primary pillars that the Trump administration considers the key to accelerating the development of AI: “accelerating AI innovation”, “Building American infrastructure of AI” and “directing in AI diplomacy and security”. Trump plans to ride the ball in terms by signing several decrees on Wednesday, according to Bloomberg, including a directive to use the US International Development Finance Corporation and the Export Import Bank to encourage American technology to be deployed worldwide and another which will require that all important language models used by the federal government are neutral and “impassive”.
What Trump’s plan is mainly equivalent to reducing regulations. For example, the report calls for “rejecting the dogma of the radical climate and the bureaucratic administrative formalities” which, according to her, will interfere with the expansion of the IA infrastructure, including the construction of data centers and new power plants to support them, the plants that Trump has already declared are A-Okay as being in coal.
The administration also uses the plan to obtain its say on the laws on AI at the level of the State, because its attempt to transmit a prohibition of 10 years on states adopting its own regulations for AI has been eliminated from the only large and beautiful bill. As part of the plan, there is a call to retain federal financing of any state which promulgates “heavy regulations of AI”. Given the lack of details on what is equivalent to a burden, the administration will surely bend this muscle at will. The plan provides for the Federal Commission on States Sicquer by putting the Agency responsible for assessing “if the regulations of the State interfere with the agency’s ability to exercise its obligations and its authorities
Under the 1934 communications law. ”
There is also a good amount of cancellation of the small AI policy before the “action plan”. Although the Biden administration publishes only one Decree linked to AI, it began to accelerate federal agencies to respond to potential concerns related to new technology. It seems to be finished now. Trump’s plan calls for examining all the investigations of the Federal Trade Commission launched by the Biden administration to ensure that they “do not advance the theories of responsibility which unduly grant the innovation of the AI”. The Trump Administration also plans to revisit the framework of risk management of AI of the National Institute and Technology to “eliminate references to disinformation, diversity, actions and inclusion and climate change”.
The action plan calls for open source AI models, so that’s good. But the rest of the plan seems to be carte blanche so that IA companies can do, with few requirements or regulations to protect the public. It also shows little interest in the federal government to examine what potential damage it could cause.
