The aim is to ensure the global dominance of the US in the AI area.
The US government presented its plans to support artificial intelligence (AI) on Wednesday. Among other things, it wants to alleviate regulation to ensure “global dominance” of the US in this sector. At the same time, the exports of these technologies will be facilitated to certain countries, TASR reports based on Reuters and AFP reports.
“We are introducing a program of cooperation with industry to provide safe export packages of artificial intelligence containing hardware, software applications and standards for friends and allies around the world,” said Michael Kratsios, Director of the Scientific and Technology Policy. The program ministries and foreign affairs will be responsible for the program.
USA will introduce an action plan
“Who will have the largest artificial intelligence ecosystem will set global standards in artificial intelligence and will have considerable economic and military benefits,” says the 90-point action plan with 25 pages.
US President Donald Trump will present him on Wednesday afternoon local time at the Washington conference. According to American media, it plans to announce some of the 90 points to new executive regulations on artificial intelligence.
Trump’s plans for AI centers
Some sources argue that Trump intends to issue executive regulations to ensure electricity supplies to many new AI data centers. Their aim is to speed up the construction of new power lines and to release the states owned by land for the construction of data centers. However, environmental protectors criticize the fact that such centers consume a huge amount of energy.
The US and China are fighting for the leading position in the AI area. In order to slow the rise of China, US governments in recent years are increasingly limiting the export of high-tech products to China.
At the end of January, Trump announced the creation of a multinational Joint Venture called Stargate focused on artificial intelligence. It is associated with investments of at least $ 500 billion (approximately € 427 billion) and are involved in Openai, Softbank, Oracle and MGX investment company.
