Policy And Influence

During his second term, Trump has prioritized creating a regulatory framework designed to bolster U.S. leadership in AI. 

On Friday, the Trump administration introduced an artificial intelligence policy designed to unify federal oversight, while calling on Congress to override what it described as excessive constraints created by state-level regulations.

“The Trump Administration is committed to winning the AI race to usher in a new era of human flourishing, economic competitiveness, and national security for the American people,” the White House said. 

According to the report, many of the selected executives have previously supported Trump’s initiatives, including donations from Meta and personal contributions from Huang to White House events.
