President Trump said it is time to rebrand "AI" with a new name and said he is creating an "AI Force," per TechCrunch. Trump also claimed, without evidence, that public backlash against AI is a "Democratic hoax." No policy text, funding figures, or organizational details for the "AI Force" were provided in the report.
