Trump announces a new 'AI Force,' but says he will not 'stifle' AI

President Donald Trump said Saturday that he is creating a new “AI force” to “watch over” AI development, a week after leading frontier AI figures urged the U.S. government to regulate the technology. In a post on Truth Social, Trump also argued he will not “hinder” or “stifle” AI’s growth, saying the U.S. will “cherish it, help it, and watch over it.” He said he will soon announce a new AI “Czar,” but offered no further details. The remarks follow warnings from companies such as Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI about rogue agents, and calls for safer pacing of frontier labs.
