And so it begins. Both the US president and the president of China have demonstrated they see AI as a competition between their respective countries. This will be an interesting ride, if nothing else.

I can’t take this seriously, as recent actions by this administration directly contradicts a few of these stated goals.

Or maybe I don’t want to, because this sounds dangerous to me at this time.

Move fast and break things I guess?

Don't regulate it except to push political goals sure seems like a recipe for success.

Exactly. You said it.

Anyone serious knows contradiction = lies.

Words are cheap, actions matter.

The most important thing here IMHO is the strong stance taken towards open source and open weight AI models. This stance puts the US government at odds with some other regulatory initiatives like the EU AI Act (which doesn't outlaw open weight models and does have some exemptions below 10²⁵ FLOPS, but still places a fairly daunting regulatory burden on decentralized open projects).
