- The White House updates its AI Directives to faster modernization
- Federal agencies are set to adopt AI in different capabilities
- The naming of Chef AI officers is still required
The White House has released two updated ‘America First’ AI directives to modernize the federal government with the risk of removing some of the protective measures introduced to protect citizens and businesses.
The changes are part of President Trump’s push to maintain US global dominance in artificial intelligence and turn some protective measures left from the Biden era.
On the whole, it seems that the goal is to maximize efficiency and remove unnecessary steps so that the United States can continue to develop the technology and its implementation at a fast speed, preventing it from being left behind.
Trump wants us to remain an AI leader
Lynne Parker, Rector Deputy CEO of the White House Ostp, was aware of demonstrating action as well as intent, said: “This administration is focused on encouraging and promoting American AI innovation and global leadership, starting to exploit these new technologies within the federal government.”
Parker added that the new policies would provide “much needed guidance” while “removing unnecessary bureaucratic restrictions.”
Artificial intelligence is not just a tool that can be connected to knowledge workers’ computers to some productivity improvements.
The Ministry of Justice uses the technology to better understand drug trafficking, while the Department of Veterans Affairs has used AI to identify and analysis of lung cancer.
Like the bite’s previous executive order, the Trump Administration calls for agencies to name Chief AI officers to take responsibility and guide their teams with more structure.
Despite the desire for rapid growth, the memorandum continues to emphasize the importance of continuous security: “Through this Memorandum, agencies are instructed to provide improved services to the public while maintaining strong protection measures for civil rights, civil freedoms and privacy.”
