Trump Announces Vague 'AI Force' and AI Czar in Weekend Truth Social Post
President Trump used a Saturday Truth Social post to declare the creation of an 'AI Force,' comparing it to his Space Force initiative, and said he would soon name an AI 'czar.' He offered no details on the group's structure, mandate, or funding, and the White House did not clarify whether it would function as a military or civilian body.
