Trump admin unveils national AI policy framework to limit state power
Source: CNBC
The Trump administration on Friday issued a legislative framework for a single national policy on artificial intelligence, aiming to create uniform safety and security guardrails around the nascent technology while preempting states from enacting their own AI rules.
The six-pronged outline broadly proposes a slew of regulations on AI products and infrastructure, ranging from implementing new child-safety rules to standardizing the permitting and energy use of AI data centers.
It also calls on Congress to address thorny issues surrounding intellectual-property rights and craft rules preventing AI systems from being used to silence or censor lawful political expression or dissent.
The administration said in an official release that it wants to work with Congress in the coming months to convert its framework into a bill that President Donald Trump can sign.

This is what the White House said about intellectual property rights:
This is BS. The AI companies' dishonest claim that their theft of IP is "fair use" is completely at odds with IP rights. And this admin is on the side of the AI robber barons. Elon Musk has even suggested getting rid of IP laws entirely (of course he'll always make sure anyone using his IP is punished).
