Trump Is Sabotaging His Own AI Plan
Briefly

President Trump released a comprehensive plan aimed at establishing U.S. AI dominance, highlighting infrastructure development and export regulations on advanced semiconductors. However, internal ideological shifts have diminished U.S. standing, specifically due to influences from individuals like David Sacks. The introduction of Nvidia's H20 chip, meant for China, has given Beijing a formidable edge. Trump's actions, including the ban on the H20 chip, and the weakening of the National Security Council indicate a significant altering of the administration's technology policy and strategic focus, creating vulnerabilities against foreign powers.
