With the power granted to me as President by the US Constitution and US laws, I hereby order:
Section 1: Goals. Because of the tremendous talent and inventiveness of our AI sector and because we refuse to impede this innovation with unduly onerous regulations, the United States continues to lead the world in AI. By removing the bureaucratic barriers that the previous administration imposed on America’s AI researchers and developers, my administration has accelerated responsible AI adoption across government and industry and unleashed great technological advancement and economic investment in AI.
