"This is our nation's first ever strategy for harnessing the power and managing the risks of AI to advance our national security," national security adviser Jake Sullivan said in a speech Thursday.
"We must outcompete our adversaries," said one of the officials. "With a lack of policy clarity and legal clarity of what can and can't be done, we are likely to see less experimentation."
The White House believes that providing clear rules for using AI will make it easier for government agencies to use the technology, according to a briefing with senior administration officials.
The United States currently has a 'strong hand' in AI and its companies dominate the field, another of the officials said. Maintaining that lead to avoid a 'strategic surprise' from rivals including China is a key government priority.
