On January 20th 2025, president Donald Trump revoked a 2023 executive order signed by previous president Biden. The upcoming replacements have not yet been noted to, but Donald Trump has expressed the need for a less hands on approach, believing Bidens approach limited AI innovation.
The following move has significant implications for AI developers. This is because the stringent safety and transparency requirements under the Executive Order on Safe, Secure and Transparent AI have now been halted.
I think we can expect a less stringent approach to AI innovation under the Trump administration. Some aspects from the Biden administration will undoubtedly be carried over, for example the US competitiveness on AI against China.
