Donald Trump Rescinds Orders on AI Security Measures
The 47th president of the United States, on the first day of his new term, revoked a directive obligating companies engaged in AI development to share safety test results with the U.S. government and report on foreign clients. This was particularly necessary to combat deepfakes and other related threats.
According to the Republican Party of the United States, such measures slowed down technological progress and imposed restrictions on businesses. The consequences of rescinding the orders, enacted by Joe Biden in October 2023, remain to be seen.
