Against this backdrop, U.S. Vice President JD Vance delivered a speech that boldly asserted America’s position as the leader in AI. Vance framed his remarks around the concept of AI as an opportunity rather than a concern, declaring, “I’m not here to talk about AI safety; I’m here to talk about AI opportunity.” He stressed that excessive regulation could stifle innovation at a crucial moment for the industry. Vance's proposals included ensuring that AI remains free from ideological bias, that it serves to bolster worker productivity and growth, and maintaining the U.S.'s competitive advantage through its sophisticated AI ecosystem that includes leading semiconductor development and advanced algorithms.
