Trump announces "AI Force" and plans for an "AI czar" as he pushes unchecked AI growth
President Trump announced an 'AI Force' and a planned 'AI czar', opposing new AI regulation and framing data-center critics as ideologically motivated.
In a Truth Social post, Donald Trump announced an 'AI Force' modeled after the Space Force and said he will soon appoint an 'AI czar'. He claimed AI could reach 25 percent of US economic output, vowed to hold America's lead over China, and said potential abuses would be handled through existing criminal and civil law rather than new regulations. His comments follow warnings from AI lab leaders and mathematicians about existential risk, and come as US communities push back against data centers over water use, energy demand, and rising utility costs.
