Trump's cost-cutting measures are impacting the federal budget, leading to firings and rehirings of workers. The administration's AI Action Plan is undermined by a lack of funding, jeopardizing U.S. leadership in AI technology. Experts assert that cuts in federal support for research may weaken the AI ecosystem, with significant projects relying on government funding. The collaboration between neuroscience and AI research is crucial, and cuts in scientific funding could deter talent from remaining in academia, further compounding the issue.
"The whole ecosystem that we have built around AI, that has been created by federal support, could soon be seriously undermined."
"Many of the flagstone projects in AI, such as computer vision for autonomous vehicles and AlphaFold, started and relied on federal funding."
