Donald Trump vows to create an 'AI Force' and appoint an 'AI czar'

Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to establish an "AI Force" and appoint a dedicated "AI Czar." This initiative comes despite industry warnings about the rapid, unchecked development of artificial intelligence. Trump indicated his administration would prioritize advancing AI capabilities.

The proposed "AI Force" mirrors the structure of the Space Force, suggesting a military or strategic focus for AI development. This move occurs amidst global competition in AI technology, particularly between the United States and China, and follows previous attempts to create an AI czar position during his presidency.
