On February 11, 2025, at the AI Action Summit Paris, Vice President JD Vance delivered his remarks. Here are some key notes:
“Number one, this administration will ensure that American AI technology continues to be the gold standard worldwide and we are the partner of choice for others — foreign countries and certainly businesses — as they expand their own use of AI.
Number two, we believe that excessive regulation of the A- — the AI sector could kill a transformative industry just as it’s taking off, and we’ll make every effort to encourage pro-gra- — growth AI policies. And I’d like to see that deregulatory flavor making its — its way into a lot of the conversations this — this conference.
Number three, we feel strongly that AI must remain free from ideological bias, and that American AI will not be co-opted into a tool for authoritarian censorship.
And finally, number four, the Trump Administration will maintain a pro-worker growth path for AI so it can be a potent tool for job creation in the United States.
And I appreciate Prime Minister Modi’s point. AI, I really believe, will facilitate and make people more productive. It is not going to replace human beings. It will never replace human beings. And I think too many of the leaders in the AI industry — when they talk about this fear of replacing workers, I think they really miss the point. AI, we believe, is going to make us more productive, more prosperous, and more free.
The United States of America is the leader in AI, and our administration plans to keep it that way. The U.S. possesses all components across the full AI stack, including advanced semiconductor design, frontier algorithms, and, of course, transformational applications.”
