Trump is set to unveil his AI roadmap: Here’s what to know

U.S. President Donald Trump is set to unveil his AI Action Plan, marking his first major address on artificial intelligence since beginning his second term. The plan aims to outline the administration’s strategies and priorities for AI, replacing the previous administration’s approach that emphasized safety, security reporting, and reducing bias in AI models. Trump’s plan is expected to focus on accelerating American AI development by easing regulatory burdens on AI companies, particularly by overhauling permitting rules to speed up AI data center construction and modernizing the electrical grid to meet increased energy demands. This approach reflects a broader push to promote U.S. innovation and global leadership in AI technology. The AI Action Plan reportedly centers on three pillars: infrastructure, innovation, and global influence. Infrastructure efforts will address energy and permitting challenges for AI data centers, while innovation initiatives aim to reduce regulatory barriers, potentially limiting federal oversight on AI safety standards. On the global stage, the administration seeks to promote American AI models and chips internationally to maintain technological dominance amid rising competition
