In 2025, the U.S. AI policy is characterized by a focus on enhancing global AI leadership, promoting human flourishing, and addressing the risks associated with AI, particularly regarding national security and the spread of misinformation.

• The Trump administration’s policy, established through Executive Order 14179, aims to remove barriers to American AI innovation and establish the U.S. as a global leader in AI. This includes revising and reissuing OMB memoranda to ensure efficient acquisition and governance of AI across the federal government.
• In the absence of comprehensive federal AI legislation, US states are actively shaping AI policy, with initiatives ranging from government AI use guidelines to consumer protection measures and studies on AI’s impact.
