US President Donald Trump has announced plans to establish an “AI Force” to support the development of artificial intelligence in the United States.
Axar.az reports that, in a post on his Truth Social account, Trump stated the initiative would be similar to the Space Force. Trump said his administration would not hinder or stifle the growth of the AI industry and would instead support its development.
"We will not in any way hinder or stifle the Growth of this incredible Industry. Rather, we will cherish it, help it, and watch over it, as it grows! However, we will also be looking for BAD, and we can do that, very easily, with our already existing Criminal and Civil Justice System. For this purpose, I am forming the AI Force, much like I did Space Force, which has been a tremendous SUCCESS, in my First Term," Trump stated.
He also said he would soon announce an AI “Czar” to oversee the initiative.
"To that end, I will be announcing, in the near future, the AI “Czar” — Only High I.Q. individuals need apply! AI is the next Industrial Revolution, or Internet, but will be even larger and more impactful, possibly as much as 25% of our Country’s GDP. We are leading China, and the rest of the World, and I intend to keep it that way," he added.
