The draft executive order, according to a person familiar with the matter, would try to block states from enacting their own laws regulating AI.

President Donald Trump could sign an executive order as early as Friday that would give the federal government powers to tweak state laws governing the artificial intelligence (AI) sector. ・The potential move follows the Senate voting to remove a moratorium on state AI laws from Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill” in July.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday establishing the “Genesis Mission,” a federal effort to boost innovation using artificial intelligence — the latest step by the administration to promote AI technology and its adoption.

The White House on Monday launched a new program to allow the Department of Energy’s national laboratories to collaborate with tech companies and academics on using AI to further scientific research.

The judge’s order blocks the implementation of an executive order that sought to dismantle three federal agencies charged by Congress with providing funding for public libraries and museums across the country.

The executive order signed on Monday directs the Department of Energy’s national laboratories to create the A.I. platform in partnership with A.I. companies.

U.S. President Donald Trump could reportedly sign an executive order that would limit states’ ability to regulate artificial intelligence. Trump may sign the order as soon as Friday, sources told Politico today.

The draft order, obtained by WIRED, instructs the US Justice Department to sue states that pass laws regulating AI.

“According to a draft of the order obtained by The Verge, the Task Force would be able to sue states whose laws are deemed to obstruct the growth of the Al industry, citing California’s recent laws on AI safety and ‘catastrophic risk’ and a Colorado law that prevents ‘algorithmic discrimination.'” —JB

Trump's executive order creates the Genesis Mission, which the administration describes as a major “marshalling of federal scientific resources.”
