Trump names national intelligence director Jay Clayton to lead a new federal AI task force
The panel will review AI risks and federal oversight and deliver recommendations within 120 days, as Trump seeks to keep the U.S. ahead of China.
- On Sunday, President Donald Trump announced the formation of a new "Super Intelligence Force" to coordinate the Federal Government's efforts to keep America leading in advanced artificial intelligence, naming Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton to lead the initiative.
- Following the Historic White House Accord where Technology Companies confirmed responsibilities to the American People, Trump described the technology as potentially "bigger than the Industrial Revolution, and the Internet," emphasizing protection for all Americans.
- Vice President Vance, Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent join White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles on the panel, while External advisers include David Sacks and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who will review security protocols.
- Tasked with reporting within 120 days, Clayton must recommend ways to strengthen Federal Government response, as the administration seeks to balance rapid AI development with security concerns while avoiding regulations that could weaken America's competitiveness.
- Notably, the administration favors voluntary safety frameworks to avoid hampering innovation against rivals like China; Trump has argued that excessive regulation could undermine America as the task force reviews security reporting protocols and potential legislative paths.
