President Trump posted on Truth Social that he wants to create an 'AI czar' to lead a new 'AI Force' and separately suggested renaming artificial intelligence altogether. The announcement came amid growing bipartisan calls, including from some AI executives, to slow down AI development, which Trump dismissed as a 'Democratic hoax.' He said his administration would not stifle the industry's growth, but rather 'cherish' and 'watch over' it. The rambling posts also touched on data centers and the economic stakes of the AI boom. Trump's remarks add a political dimension to the ongoing debate over AI safety and regulation, positioning the White House firmly against efforts to rein in the industry.
