Donald Trump reveals AI plan to boost U.S. global leadership by cutting federal rules and limiting state regulations
Trump's pro-industry AI vision pushes innovation and deregulation. It prioritizes speeding up infrastructure development and rolling back rules on diversity, climate, and state-level AI laws.
President Donald Trump unveiled a big new AI Action Plan focused on accelerating the U.S.’s global dominance in artificial intelligence. This plan aims to eliminate barriers to AI innovation. That means fewer federal restrictions and discouraging state laws that impose environmental, equity, or misinformation requirements.
Inside Trump’s AI strategy
Trump’s AI Action Plan is built around three main goals: speed up innovation through a “try-first” approach by minimizing regulatory barriers and encouraging rapid experimentation, supercharge U.S. infrastructure like data centers and chip factories, and make the U.S. a global leader in AI security and diplomacy, especially when it comes to threats like deepfakes.
At the heart of the plan is deregulation. It strips out federal guidance related to diversity, climate change, and misinformation, and it threatens to pull funding from states that pass stricter AI laws.
Recently, Trump said that TikTok’s U.S. operations are being sold to a group of very wealthy investors, but the sale still appears to be ongoing. He also threatened Apple with a 25% tariff on iPhones unless the company moves production of iPhones sold in the U.S. back to the United States.
The plan encourages AI adoption across government and industry, including the military, and calls for retraining workers as AI reshapes the job market. It also supports fast-tracking chip production and expanding energy capacity (especially fossil fuels) to handle AI’s massive power needs. On the international front, it eases some export restrictions, like lifting a ban on Nvidia’s H20 chips to China.
It also allows the government to cancel contracts with companies seen as “ideologically biased,” though it’s unclear what that means. Meanwhile, it invests in AI-powered health tech and pushes for tougher laws on deepfakes and disinformation. In short, the plan is a fast-moving, pro-industry push to lock in U.S. dominance in AI.

Been with gamepressure.com since 2019, mostly writing game guides but you can also find me geeking out about LEGO (huge collection, btw). Love RPGs and classic RTSs, also adore quirky indie games. Even with a ton of games, sometimes I just gotta fire up Harvest Moon, Stardew Valley, KOTOR, or Baldur's Gate 2 (Shadows of Amn, the OG, not that Throne of Bhaal stuff). When I'm not gaming, I'm probably painting miniatures or admiring my collection of retro consoles.
