President Donald Trump Repeals and Replaces Biden Administration’s Executive Order on AI
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order titled “Removing Barriers to American Leadership in AI,” which revokes former President Joe Biden’s 2023 executive order on AI. Biden’s order had focused on providing U.S. industry with guidance for oversight and safety tests of AI systems that pose risks to national security, the economy, or public health. In contrast, Trump’s new directive emphasizes eliminating regulatory obstacles to foster AI innovation, aiming to solidify the United States’ global position. The order instructs key White House officials to develop an action plan within 180 days to achieve these objectives.
