Donald Trump has presented the expected ‘United States AI’ Action Plana political route that seeks to accelerate the adoption of artificial intelligence tools, boost infrastructure development and win the battle for global domain against China. Like everything that comes from the USA, and more in technological matters, will end up affecting the entire planet.
The White House Plan has been reflected in a 20 -page document describing a strategy focused on three great objectives: Accelerate innovation in AI through the elimination of bureaucratic procedures and regulations, strengthen US infrastructure of AI and promote the use of this technology between allies and friends of the United States.
The document combines a series of policy recommendations for the agencies of the Executive Power with an call to the interested parties to identify what they consider are norms that hinder innovation and adoption of AIwhich will allow relevant government organisms to address them. Trump is preparing a series of decrees to specify them.
The Office of Administration and Budget (OMB) must also identify, review or repeal regulations, norms, memoranda, administrative orders, guidance documents, policy statements and inter -institutional agreements that “They unnecessarily hinder the development or implementation of AI”.
US Action Plan, Lights and Shadows
Trump’s team’s strategy is clear: Own the technologies must advance above all and everyoneand end up dominating the world obviating any type of regulation, security issues, ethics, which call ‘ideological bias’ (even those that affect fundamental rights) or the huge amount of resources needed to feed them, including energy. In addition, it imagines the development of AI as a career between those on the side of the United States and those that are not, and frames internal and external policy in that context.
A good part of the essence of the plan is to discover the national regulations that hinder the development of AI and eliminate them with fire. It does not surprise that some media think that Trump’s artificial intelligence plan “It takes away the brakes to the car and gives the great technology exactly what they wanted”.
To begin with, the Office of Administration and Budget (WBO) will divert the federal financing for the states with regulations that it considers too strict. The Action Plan also urges the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to examine whether the state regulations interfere with its operations, and the Federal Commerce Commission (FTC) to reduce its influence and to marginalize the investigations that it considers a ballast for innovation in AI.
Trump’s ‘AI Action Plan’ requires eliminating references to diversity, equity or inclusion of the Risk Management Framework of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). It also specifically requires the search for biases in Chinese models and proposes to eradicate initiatives against climate change. It also contemplates prohibiting states from regulating any aspect that involves AI technologies.
All for and for the AI
The document exposes the plans to strengthen US infrastructure of AI, which covers data centers, chip manufacturing and energy infrastructure. The latter is particularly crucial, especially since the national electricity network has difficulty satisfying the growing demand in AI data centers. The plan also suggests reducing the rules that slow down the construction of data centers and semiconductor manufacturing facilities, and expanding the electricity network for «Support the high energy consumption industries of the future».
The third leg of the strategy is that the United States exports its technology to its allies and partners, making sure they depend on American technology for your needs of AI. It is a objective defended by Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia: that the United States disseminates its AI technology to adopt widely and become the worldwide standard. However, exports control is also one of the policies listed in the document, which suggests additional prohibitions on component subsystems used in the manufacture of semiconductors.
There will also be debate between developers. The Plan recommends that the Federal Government of the United States work only with developers of the LLM (the large language models that support the IA ecosystem) whose systems are objective and free of ideological biases from top to bottom. This is a controversial issue on the president’s agenda and could even generate legal battles that would last months, if not years. But for now, IA developers who want to obtain a portion of the government cake must align with the priorities of the current administration.
Y Copyright. “You can’t expect an AI program to be successful when you are supposed to be paid for each article, book or anything else that has been read or studied”Trump said in the presentation. This means that the president ‘passes’ widely from the editorial, recordings, media companies, individual artists and other rights holders, on the legality of training his AI tools with copyright protected by copyright without permission or compensation
The Trump administration seeks to create a culture of “Test first” For AI throughout the American industry to promote a greater adoption of AI tools. It encourages the government itself to adopt tools of AI, even aggressively within the Armed Forces. As the AI alters the demands of the workforce, it seeks “Recupacitar rapidly and help workers prosper in an economy driven by AI”.
Unique objective: win the battle for AI
These pillars, listed by the White House, indicate how it expects to achieve the supremacy in his career against China. This document is not an executive order, which means that it serves as a political road map that describes Trump’s objectives. However, it is also an advance of what we can expect from Washington in the coming months and years, and provides all other government agencies clarity and guidance on the strategy that the oval office wants to implement in the field of AI.
Trump is expected to firm a series of related executive orders this week to help implement a plan that will end up affecting the entire planet. The objective is unique and declared: Win the battle of AI obviating its consequences in loss of fundamental rights; less defense against climate change; Goodbye to inclusion and diversity policies; free use of all copyright material; the loss of workforce while investments in AI intensify; those related to cybersecurity or those that imply the use of welded robots and autonomous weapons. Not to mention the Total lack of control of the inherent risk of AI when one day is smarter than the humans who are creating them.
