power data centers completely with renewables<\/a> by 2030.<\/p>\n\u201cA typical AI data center eats up as much electricity as 100,000 homes,\u201d Guterres said. \u201cBy 2030, data centers could consume as much electricity as all of Japan does today.\u201d<\/p>\n
The plan includes a strategy to disincentivize states from aggressively regulating AI technology. It recommends that federal agencies \u201cconsider a state\u2019s AI regulatory climate when making funding decisions and limit funding if the state\u2019s AI regulatory regimes may hinder the effectiveness of that funding or award.\u201d<\/p>\n
Trump\u2019s Republican administration had supported a different proposal in Congress to block states from passing any AI laws for 10 years, but the Senate defeated it earlier this month.<\/p>\n
Who benefits from Trump\u2019s AI action plan?<\/p>\n
There are sharp debates on how to regulate AI, even among the influential venture capitalists who have been debating it on their favorite medium: the podcast. <\/p>\n
While some Trump backers, particularly Andreessen, have advocated an \u201caccelerationist\u201d approach that aims to speed up AI advancement with minimal regulation, Sacks has described himself as taking a middle road of techno-realism.<\/p>\n
\u201cTechnology is going to happen. Trying to stop it is like ordering the tides to stop. If we don\u2019t do it, somebody else will,\u201d Sacks said on the \u201cAll-In\u201d podcast.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, more than 100 groups, including labor unions, parent groups, environmental justice organizations and privacy advocates, signed a resolution opposing Trump\u2019s embrace of industry-driven AI policy and calling for a \u201cPeople\u2019s AI Action Plan\u201d that would \u201cdeliver first and foremost for the American people.\u201d<\/p>\n
Amba Kak, co-executive director of the AI Now Institute, which helped lead the effort, said the coalition expects Trump\u2019s plan to come \u201cstraight from Big Tech\u2019s mouth.\u201d <\/p>\n
\u201cEvery time we say, \u2018What about our jobs, our air, water, our children?\u2019 they\u2019re going to say, \u2018But what about China?\u2019\u201d she said in a call with reporters Tuesday. She said Americans should reject the White House\u2019s argument that the industry is overregulated and fight to preserve \u201cbaseline protections for the public\u201d as AI technology advances.<\/p>\n
