Trump Blocks States from Setting Their Own AI Rules. US President Donald Trump has signed a new executive order that prevents individual states from enforcing their own artificial intelligence regulations. Speaking from the Oval Office, Trump said the goal is to create one central source of approval for AI oversight - According to BBC. The White House says the order lets the administration push back against what it calls overly burdensome state rules — though it won’t interfere with laws meant to protect children. Tech giants have long argued that a single national standard is essential for innovation and for maintaining the US lead in the global AI race, especially against China. But the decision has sparked immediate backlash. California Governor Gavin Newsom accused Trump of corruption and warned that the order undermines important protections. States like California, Colorado, and New York have already introduced their own AI safeguards, saying federal rules aren’t strong enough. Critics argue that removing state authority weakens residents’ safety. Supporters counter that a patchwork of state laws only creates confusion. Tech lobby groups welcomed the move, saying national standards will bring clarity for developers.
