The White House released an artificial intelligence (AI) policy plan on Wednesday spelling out priorities for the U.S. to achieve "global dominance" in the sector. U.S. President Donald Trump's plan calls for open-source and open-weight AI models to be made freely available by developers for anyone in the world to download and modify.

The AI Action Plan released by the U.S. government on Wednesday recommends easing the way for data centers and other AI infrastructure by reducing regulations.

President Donald Trump’s first major speech on artificial intelligence comes amid a technology arms race among Silicon Valley giants.
