President Trump's rollback of Biden-era safety and security measures will speed up generative AI development, but without federal oversight, who will monitor potential issues?

On Thursday, Trump signed an executive order affirming his administration’s commitment to solidifying America’s AI dominance globally. He also called for federal agency heads to review Biden-era AI policies and regulations and revoke any that might act as a barrier to U.S. innovation in the space.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday revoked a 2023 executive order signed by Joe Biden that sought to reduce the risks that artificial intelligence poses to consumers, workers and national security.

Donald Trump axed all that yesterday as he signed a flurry of new executive orders. One of his first actions was to rescind 78 Biden-era executive actions, including Executive Order 14110 on “Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence.”

Much of Biden's order set in motion a sprint across government agencies to study AI's impact on everything from cybersecurity risks to its effects on education, workplaces, and public benefits.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday signed an executive order related to AI to "make America the world capital in artificial intelligence," his aide told reporters in the White House's Oval Office.

The order has ignited debate over the balance between fostering innovation and addressing critical issues such as privacy, security, and ethical standards.

U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order which revokes the Biden Administration's artificial intelligence policies and has directed the development of an AI Action Plan to boost America's AI dominance.
