Official account of the 22nd Under Secretary of State for Economic Affairs @StateDept

Washington, D.C.
Today, 35 nations signed the Joint Statement on AI Opportunity, aligning behind a PRO-GROWTH, PRO-INNOVATION regulatory approach for the AI era. A commitment to trusted supply chains, to mobilizing the private sector, and the infrastructure that will power the next century. The future of AI will not be determined by who regulates first. It will be determined by who builds first and builds the most capacity. More energy. More compute. More chips. More talent. More builders. A future where we ACCELERATE INNOVATION AND PRIVATE INVESTMENT is welcomed. Together, we aspire to build an AI future that serves our peoples, strengthens our economies, and empowers entrepreneurship, innovation, and the rule of law.

At #UNGA, the U.S. and Poland aligned on a pro-growth, pro-innovation regulatory agenda and expanding tech cooperation. Appreciated meeting with Poland's Deputy FM & National Security Advisor Robert Kupiecki on how the U.S. and Poland can reduce barriers and deepen tech cooperation to drive investment and innovation.

Thanks to President Trump’s leadership on AI: — a million new jobs have been created around the AI buildout; — 401(k)s are up ~12% this year as AI capex and productivity lift the market; — America is re-industrializing, including the first large private investments in power generation and the grid in a generation; — In rural Richland Parish, Louisiana, teachers just received $50,000 bonuses from data-center tax revenue. Because the media portrays AI only as a menace, people tell pollsters they “don’t like AI.” Their behavior says otherwise. AI products are the fastest-adopted technology in history — faster than the internet or the iPhone. People like the tools, the jobs, and the tax base. President Trump understands the media hoax cycle better than anyone else. That is why he is refusing the “pause” that Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are demanding. A pause would not make America safer. It would hand the frontier to China. That would be a disaster for the American economy and for national security.
