President Donald Trump announced Monday that he plans to sign an executive order allowing only “one rule” to regulate artificial intelligence in the United States
“There can only be one set of rules if we want to continue to be leaders in AI. At this point in the race we are beating ALL COUNTRIES, but that won’t last long when we have 50 states, many of them bad actors, involved in RULES and the APPROVAL PROCESS,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
Several states, including California and New York, have passed statewide laws this year regulating various aspects of AI, including transparency, whistleblower protection, and user and youth safety. Trump did not elaborate on which states he viewed as bad actors in the regulatory process or what he deemed to be bad actors.
