Trump announces AI Force and plans to appoint an AI czar
President Donald Trump has announced the creation of an "AI Force" modeled after the Space Force and said he plans to appoint an "AI czar."
Trump said his administration intends to support rather than restrict the industry's growth while using existing criminal and civil law to address harmful activity.
He described AI as the next Industrial Revolution and said the technology could eventually account for as much as 25% of U.S. GDP. The economic figure represents Trump's projection rather than an established forecast.
