Trump's artificial intelligence executive order will ensure America doesn't lose the AI race to China
China steps up plans for using artificial intelligence to strengthen its military; Bill Hemmer reports. China wants to become the world leader in artificial intelligence (AI) by 2030, and President Donald Trump is taking the necessary steps to ensure that won't happen. Last week, the president signed an executive order, the American AI Initiative, that will accelerate America's pursuit of the sophisticated AI capabilities necessary to maintain our military and economic dominance. The Chinese government exercises significant control over its domestic technology firms and frequently steals intellectual property from foreign companies that operate in the country. In addition, it has poured sizable resources into its AI programs in a deliberate effort to eclipse America in the race to perfect this world-changing technology.
