This regulation establishes a new U.S. government approach to artificial intelligence by revoking previous AI-related policies and creating a framework for maintaining American leadership in AI technology. The executive order directs key government officials, including the Assistant to the President for Science and Technology and the Special Advisor for AI and Crypto, to develop an AI Action Plan within 180 days to promote human flourishing, economic competitiveness, and national security.
