US President Trump launches the AI Force

US President Donald Trump announced plans to establish an 'AI Force' to oversee artificial intelligence development. He proposed appointing a special AI envoy in the near future, emphasizing that the growth of the AI industry would not be hindered but rather supported and supervised by the government. Trump stated that existing criminal and civil laws could address potential misuse of AI technology. The White House did not immediately comment on the plans. Earlier this week, Trump rejected calls for new federal regulations on AI, arguing that a strong president alone was sufficient for regulating the technology. Additionally, US representatives plan to discuss AI during an upcoming meeting between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, where both nations view advancements in AI as critical to their economic and military competitiveness. However, they disagree on access to advanced chips, allegations of technology theft, and industry regulation.

U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to establish an "AI Force" to oversee developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and appointed a special envoy for AI. The announcement came via his social media platform Truth Social, where Trump stated that the growth of the AI industry would not be hindered. Instead, the government would value, support, and supervise its expansion. At the same time, attention would be paid to misuse, which could be easily regulated using existing criminal and civil law. The White House did not immediately comment on the plans. Trump had earlier described what he called a "crazy conspiracy" against AI and data centers. He rejected calls for new federal AI regulations and emphasized that the United States needed only a strong president to regulate the technology. The topic of AI will also play a role during Trump's planned meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping next week. Washington and Beijing view progress in AI as crucial to their economic and military competitiveness, although they remain divided on access to advanced chips, allegations of technology theft, and the regulation of the AI industry. The establishment of the "AI Force" marks a shift in Trump's approach to AI regulation. Previously, he had resisted stronger regulation, but now he appears to be moving toward creating a governmental oversight body. The details of the "AI Force" are still unclear, though its creation could be interpreted as the first step in establishing state supervision of the technology. Until now, Trump had opposed stricter regulation. In addition to announcing the formation of the "AI Force," Trump also indicated that he would soon appoint an AI envoy, referred to as an "AI czar." This position is similar to the one previously held by Silicon Valley entrepreneur David Sacks, who stepped down after his term as an external government official expired. The requirements for this role are high, according to Trump, with only individuals possessing a high IQ being eligible. The move comes amid growing tensions between policymakers and leading figures in the tech sector. While pioneers such as Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and OpenAI have warned of unpredictable risks and called for a slowdown in AI development, Trump dismisses these concerns as hoaxes spread by the political left. He argues that slowing down AI development would only benefit China, and through the "AI Force," Washington aims to secure its global leadership position and ensure maximum expansion of the AI sector, which Trump estimates could contribute up to 25 percent of U.S. GDP. The issue of AI will be discussed during Trump's upcoming meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Both Washington and Beijing see advancements in AI as key to their economic and military competitiveness, yet they remain at odds over access to advanced chips, allegations of technology theft, and the regulation of the AI industry. The U.S. administration has not yet commented on the specific agenda for the meeting, but it is clear that AI will be a central topic of discussion.

Trump verwies zudem auf sogenannte 'kranke Verschwörungserzählungen' gegen KI und betonte, die USA benötigten nur einen starken Präsidenten für die Regulierung.
