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.

Well-received for its cybersecurity provisions, Trump’s AI action plan could face hurdles in practice due to a lack of implementation hooks and the burden it adds to agencies navigating budget cuts, experts say.

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.
