Trump announces ‘AI Force’ and plans for an ‘AI Czar’
President Donald Trump has announced plans to establish an ‘AI Force’ and appoint an ‘AI Czar’ to oversee the artificial intelligence industry. Drawing a parallel to the creation of the Space Force, the proposed entity aims to promote technological dominance and economic growth, which Trump estimates could eventually account for up to 25% of the U.S. GDP. The president emphasized that the administration will not stifle industry growth and intends to use existing criminal and civil laws to address misconduct, rather than implementing new restrictive regulations.
In a separate diplomatic development, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng held discussions in New York regarding AI safety. The two nations have proposed a new notification mechanism to alert one another to AI-related incidents that could pose risks to national security. These talks serve as a precursor to a scheduled summit between President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping in Washington, where AI, trade, and technology are expected to be central agenda items.
