Expected impact
- Likely reduction in government oversight and regulation of AI technologies
- Potential acceleration of AI development and deployment in the private sector
- Possible creation of a more business-friendly environment for AI companies and startups
- Shift in focus from AI safety concerns to economic competitiveness and national security priorities
- Formation of new AI policies that emphasize market-driven innovation rather than government guardrails
