Trump forms 'AI Force' to oversee artificial intelligence development

independent.co.uk

President Donald Trump announced Saturday he is forming an "AI Force" to oversee artificial intelligence development, days after dismissing AI safety concerns as a "hoax." He stated the initiative would not hinder industry growth but instead support and monitor it. In a social media post, Trump compared the new body to his Space Force, calling it a "tremendous SUCCESS" from his first term. He said he will soon announce an AI "Czar," adding that only "High I.Q. individuals need apply." The announcement follows his recent dismissal of AI threat warnings as a hoax. This is a developing story, with further details expected in the near future regarding the force's structure and leadership.
