The White House unveiled a bold "AI Action Plan" with more than 90 federal policy steps designed to strengthen the U.S. AI infrastructure, innovation, and international competitiveness. The plan focuses on three key priorities: accelerating AI innovation, growing data centers and chip fabs, and advancing American AI leadership abroad.

Regulatory Overhaul & Federal Adoptions

As part of the initiative, President Trump signed executive orders reversing Biden-era AI regulations, prioritizing deregulation to accelerate AI deployment across government and industry . Federal agencies will revise AI procurement and use policies to remove unnecessary bureaucracy and improve efficiency.

The proposal involves withholding federal AI-related funding for states that have strict AI regulations, and instructs the FCC to scan state regulations for inconsistency with federal policy.

Global Reach: Push America's AI Abroad

One of the central components of the strategy is to strengthen export of U.S.-developed AI via Commerce-driven "full-stack" installations and data center initiatives in foreign countries.It also revokes export limitations on AI chips, indicating a more aggressive tech diplomacy stance.
