There is a lot of debate around potential AI policy changes as Donald Trump prepares to take charge as US president. According to a report by news platform Wired, a Trump administration AI policy would likely prioritize ensuring US leadership in AI development, focusing on competition with China. This strategy, per the report, could involve bolstering federal resources to support massive AI projects and maintaining or intensifying sanctions on Chinese tech companies to restrict their access to critical US technology, like advanced chips essential for training powerful AI models. Trump has promised to repeal the executive order on AI by US President Biden, which was introduced to implement safety measures like preventing algorithmic bias and strengthening federal oversight of AI developments. Critics argue that reversing these policies could lead to less oversight in a rapidly evolving field, potentially increasing risks as AI is deployed more broadly.

Another important development that investors should keep an eye on is the influence of Elon Musk on Trump’s policies. Musk aggressively backed Trump during the campaign and his AI startup, xAI, could benefit from friendly Trump policies, per the Wired report. The report also added that the focus on xAI would in turn serve to make OpenAI and Google targets, perhaps threatening the ability of the two firms to secure lucrative future government contracts.
