TechnologyGovernment ReformEconomy & Trade

Summary

This executive order establishes a national framework for artificial intelligence regulation by directing the creation of an AI Litigation Task Force to challenge state AI laws that the administration views as overly restrictive, requiring evaluation of existing state AI laws, and conditioning federal broadband funding on states' compliance with the order's AI policy priorities.

Key Points

  • 1Establishes an AI Litigation Task Force within the Department of Justice to challenge state AI laws deemed inconsistent with national AI dominance policy, including on interstate commerce and preemption grounds
  • 2Requires the Secretary of Commerce to evaluate existing state AI laws within 90 days and identify those that are 'onerous' or require AI models to alter outputs, with particular focus on laws that may violate First Amendment rights
  • 3Conditions federal broadband funding (BEAD Program) eligibility on states' compliance with the order's AI policy framework, making states with restrictive AI laws ineligible for certain federal funds
  • 4Directs the administration to work with Congress to create a minimally burdensome national AI standard to preempt conflicting state regulations
