President Trump announced plans to issue an executive order this week aimed at creating a unified regulatory framework for artificial intelligence in the United States.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump emphasized the need for a single set of rules governing AI development, arguing that having regulations vary across all 50 states would hinder American leadership in the technology.

“There must be only One Rulebook if we are going to continue to lead in AI,” Trump wrote. “We are beating ALL COUNTRIES at this point in the race, but that won’t last long if we are going to have 50 States, many of them bad actors, involved in RULES and the APPROVAL PROCESS.”

The president expressed concern that fragmented state-level regulations would impede innovation in the AI sector. “You can’t expect a company to get 50 Approvals every time they want to do something. THAT WILL NEVER WORK!” he stated.

Trump indicated his executive order would establish a unified regulatory approach, though specific details about the planned “ONE RULE” framework were not provided in his announcement.
