Trump announces formation of an artificial intelligence task force and appointment of an AI czar

Former U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the United States will not hinder the development of the artificial intelligence industry, but will instead support and oversee the growth of the sector. Trump described AI as "the next industrial revolution," with an impact that could reach 25% of the U.S. GDP. He noted that the U.S. currently leads other countries in the AI field and hopes to maintain this advantage. Trump announced plans to establish an "Artificial Intelligence Task Force," similar to the previously established Space Force, and will appoint an "AI Czar" in the future to oversee AI affairs. Trump emphasized that the government will not inhibit AI innovation through restrictive measures but will use the existing criminal and civil justice systems to address unlawful activities in the AI sector. He also acknowledged that the AI industry has previously faced skepticism and attacks from the outside world, but the government will continue to support its development and strengthen relevant oversight.
