Trump outlines AI agenda for second term focusing on deregulation and energy policy
As Trump prepares for his second term, he aims to implement a comprehensive agenda for artificial intelligence (AI) that includes deregulation, boosting domestic energy production, and reforming infrastructure permitting. This marks a shift from the Biden administration's regulatory approach. Trump plans to repeal Biden's extensive AI executive order, which imposes strict reporting requirements on private companies. He argues that this framework could hinder innovation and that companies are better positioned to assess their own AI risks. Additionally, Trump seeks to align energy policy with AI needs by promoting reliable energy sources and revising environmental regulations. He emphasizes the importance of a strong tech sector for national security and aims to streamline permitting processes for critical infrastructure.
