President Trump’s action revoking former President Biden's executive order on AI safety raises expectations for corporate boards to closely monitor technology risks.

President Trump’s executive order on January 23rd follows his repeal of Biden’s AI executive order, directing reviews of relevant work by federal departments and agencies.

The order required developers of AI systems posing risks to national security, the economy, public health or safety to share the safety test results.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on artificial intelligence Thursday that will revoke past government policies his order says “act as barriers to American AI innovation.”

Titled "Removing Barriers to American Leadership in Artificial Intelligence," this new order follows after Trump revoked the Biden Administration's 2023 AI safety order, which was intended to make sure these systems don't harm national security or humanity itself.
