🇺🇸🤖 Trump wants to build an “AI Force” — and says AI could become 25% of the U.S. economy.
President Donald Trump has announced plans to create a new “AI Force,” modeled after the Space Force, as the United States pushes deeper into the global artificial intelligence race.
He also said he will appoint an “AI Czar” to oversee the effort. No details have yet been announced about who will get the job or exactly how the new force will operate.
Trump made his position on AI growth clear:
“We will not in any way hinder or stifle the Growth of this incredible Industry.”
Instead, he said the U.S. should support, protect and monitor the industry as it expands.
At the same time, Trump said the government would look for the “BAD” uses of AI and rely on existing criminal and civil justice systems to deal with wrongdoing.
Then came the much bigger economic prediction.
Trump described AI as “the next Industrial Revolution” and said it could eventually represent as much as 25% of U.S. GDP.
That is a huge claim — and it shows just how important AI has become in the U.S. economic and strategic conversation.
The announcement comes as debate over AI safety is intensifying, with some technology leaders and researchers calling for greater caution, while the Trump administration continues to emphasize rapid development and competition with China.
For now, one thing is clear:
Washington is no longer treating AI as just another technology sector.
The bigger question is what this proposed AI Force will actually look like — and how much power the new AI Czar will have.
The AI race just entered another chapter. 🇺🇸🤖
