AI ACTION PLAN “Today, a new frontier of scientific discovery lies before us,defined by transformative technologies such as artificialintelligence… Breakthroughs in these fields have the potentialto reshape the global balance of power, spark entirely newindustries, and revolutionize the way we live and work. As ourglobal competitors race to exploit these technologies, it is anational security imperative for the United States to achieveandmaintain unquestioned and unchallenged globaltechnological dominance. To secure our future, we mustharness the full power of American innovation.” Donald J.
