The AI Policy Network today released recommendations for the Trump Administration’s AI Action Plan, outlining three areas in AI policy that require urgent focus: economic opportunities, national security, and artificial general intelligence.

The recommendations and analysis provide both high-level direction and concrete steps to maintain U.S. leadership in the AI revolution and were submitted in response to the Office of Science and Technology Policy’s Request for Information (RFI) on the AI Action Plan.

“The decisions we make now will determine whether the 21st century is an American century defined by freedom, prosperity, and security—or whether we cede ground to authoritarian powers or autonomous systems outside anyone’s control,” wrote Daniel Colson, Founder and Executive Director of the AI Policy Network. “…This submission provides high-level direction to keep the United States as the global leader in artificial intelligence, along with concrete steps to achieve this vision. We urge the Administration to adopt these recommendations and move swiftly to execute them.”

The submission addresses three critical dimensions of AI policy:

Economic Opportunities of AI: We examine AI’s potential to drive unprecedented productivity growth and create trillions of dollars of economic value. This section addresses critical energy infrastructure needs, light-touch regulatory approaches, and strategies to support American workers through the transition.

Strategic AI National Security Priorities: We outline measures to maintain America’s technological sovereignty and protect against emerging threats. This includes strengthening export controls, enhancing AI cybersecurity resilience, and developing military applications while mitigating CBRN risks.

The Emergence of Artificial General Intelligence: We propose governance frameworks for increasingly powerful AI systems that approach and exceed human-level intelligence. This section recommends establishing a National AGI Commission and funding critical safety research to ensure these systems remain aligned with American values and stay under human control.
