White House to unveil plan to expand US AI exports

The White House will announce a plan on July 23, 2025, to promote American AI technology globally and address state laws that may impede its development.

This information comes from a draft document obtained by Reuters.

The plan proposes restrictions on federal AI funding for states with strict AI regulations.

It also assigns the Federal Communications Commission the task of assessing whether state laws conflict with federal guidelines.

Furthermore, the initiative supports open-source AI development and export projects through Commerce Department-led data center initiatives.

The document emphasizes the use of AI for job creation and advancements in US industries.

US President Donald Trump ordered the initiative in January and will present the plan at an event titled “Winning the AI Race.”

The proposal includes input from the National Security Council. It aims to enhance AI deployment within the Pentagon and identify federal regulations that obstruct AI development.

Additionally, it seeks to expedite permits for data center construction.

This initiative represents a policy shift from the previous administration, which had imposed export restrictions on AI technology due to national security concerns.

The new plan aims to position the US as a leader in AI innovation.
