Trump's AI plan prioritizes Silicon Valley growth over ethics and safety

Silicon Valley
Ethics

Trump's new AI Action Plan, backed by Silicon Valley elites, emphasizes deregulation and rapid deployment while sidelining ethical concerns and safety measures.

At a high-profile event hosted by the All-In podcast and the Hill & Valley coalition, President Trump signed his new AI Action Plan, marking a shift toward a deregulated, pro-growth approach to artificial intelligence. The event, held at Washington’s Andrew Mellon Auditorium, was attended by Silicon Valley’s elite, including Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Trump’s appointed AI and crypto czar David Sacks.

Accelerationists Take the Lead

The plan aligns with the "accelerationist" ideology championed by figures like Sacks, White House AI advisor Sriram Krishnan, and Office of Science and Technology Policy director Michael Kratsios. Their philosophy prioritizes rapid AI deployment, minimal regulation, and geopolitical dominance over cautious governance. This stance, articulated by Marc Andreessen in his 2023 blog post, has effectively sidelined the Biden-era focus on AI ethics, safety, and accountability.

Ethics and Safety Sidelined

Former advocates for AI guardrails—ranging from civil rights groups to existential risk researchers—now find themselves marginalized. While some maintain influence in academic or international circles, the current administration’s emphasis on speed and scale leaves little room for ethical considerations. The article suggests that a public backlash or a major AI-related incident may be the only path to reintroducing these concerns into the policy debate.
