Trump Announces 'AI Force' to Accelerate US Artificial Intelligence Development

nos.nl (Dutch)

President Trump announced plans to create an "AI Force" unit to accelerate artificial intelligence development in the US, modeled after the Space Force, and will appoint a new "AI czar" for advice. The unit will also address negative AI impacts within existing criminal law. Trump dismissed warnings from former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon, who predicted AI could wipe out humanity by 2030, vowing not to stifle the sector's growth. The announcement comes days before Trump's meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, as both nations compete for AI leadership. Trump's former AI czar, David Sacks, opposes new federal regulations, suggesting companies should slow development if necessary.
