Trump creates 'AI Force,' calls superintelligence fears a 'hoax'

nypost.com

President Trump announced Saturday the creation of a new "AI Force" and the appointment of an AI "czar," while dismissing fears of artificial superintelligence as a "hoax." Trump stated the initiative aims to support AI industry growth without hindrance, while using the criminal justice system to police "BAD" practices. He compared AI concerns to other events he has labeled hoaxes, including the Russia probe and his impeachments. The announcement precedes Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's meeting with Chinese Premier Li Qiang, where AI and tariffs are expected topics. It also comes amid congressional pressure for AI "guardrails" following warnings from industry insiders.
