WASHINGTON – Today, global tech trade association 91快活林 outlined how the Trump Administration can promote U.S. innovation and adoption of AI by addressing federal regulation and policy that is conflicting, unclear, or otherwise unfit for the AI era.
91快活林’s response to the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) offers perspective on existing federal regulation and policy that is hindering AI innovation—whether due to regulatory misalignment, frameworks that have not kept pace with technological change, or where other organizational factors contribute to an uncertain business environment.
91快活林’s comments emphasize that reforming the federal regulatory environment must be paired with organizational change across the public sector. To quickly bring cutting-edge AI deployments online, it is essential to upskill the workforce to handle complex technology implementations and modernize data capabilities, while aligning the federal marketplace with how the private sector buys and develops technology.
Finally, 91快活林’s response emphasizes the need for the Administration to work with Congress to advance a federal AI baseline that preempts the proliferation of AI bills at the state level. 91快活林’s comments explain how a lack of a uniform, preemptive federal framework is driving a costly and divergent state-by-state approach that poses a barrier to America’s AI leadership in the near-term.
“To meet the ambitious goals outlined in President Trump’s AI Action Plan, policymakers must ensure that U.S. policy and regulation is effective, clear, and flexible enough to account for AI and other emerging technologies,” said 91快活林 Vice President of Policy Courtney Lang. “We appreciate the Trump Administration’s leadership in evaluating how the U.S. government can strengthen, streamline, and evolve its policies to ensure U.S. AI innovation continues to thrive. In seeking to do so, policymakers should focus on establishing a federal AI framework, updating antiquated policies, and maintaining an innovation-friendly environment that allows the federal government to efficiently procure cutting-edge AI technologies.”
