America Can’t Lead in Artificial Intelligence by Firing All the Experts

The United States was arrested in a growing paradox. Just as artificial intelligence (AI) became the main axis of the political agenda of US President Donald Trump, the administration’s efforts to create a smaller federal government over hundreds of technology specialists, and many of them are uniquely skilled in the policy of artificial intelligence, engineering and design.

Among the most affected offices, the main innovation offices were dismantled: the American digital service and the Public Service Management Office were effectively disassembled, while the Ministry of Internal Security IQ, the United States Digital Corps, the Presidential Innovation Fellowship, and other programs were significantly reduced. This increasing loss of talent undermines the priorities that the Trump administration seeks to progress, including maintaining the leadership of the United States in artificial intelligence.

While the US congress discusses efforts to organize artificial intelligence, many executives of technology companies have asked the federal government to intervene to protect society from the emergence of independent artificial intelligence systems that can take action without supervision of users, deceiving users or evading controls. But given the last wave of workers’ demobilization, federal agencies responsible for implementing policy, setting standards, and spreading artificial intelligence solutions will be not equipped to act if the government decides to move forward in the policy of artificial intelligence and its organization.

This can lead to risk fragmented gaps that allow dangerous systems to evade regulation – or on the contrary, this can lead to bad design laws that restrict useful research and innovation.

There are also serious geopolitical effects on federal employees decisions. Allies and opponents alike are ready to take advantage of the Trump administration’s decision to rid the higher talents. In fact, they already break their hunting for their national efforts of artificial intelligence.

In May, the European Commission announced a $ 568 million initiative with a strong focus on artificial intelligence to attract foreign researchers and scientists to work in Europe. The United States initiative does not mention specifically, but it is clear that it was in response to Washington’s financing discounts for science and research. In April, the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation said it had allocated $ 158 million to international researchers, with a deals worth $ 235,000 for every project that includes Americans who want to “give up their country because of the economic and political situation.”

Recently, the Japanese government announced an investment of $ 700 million to seduce foreign researchers, including Americans who cut their research budgets. Even individual universities enter the law: AIX Marseille University in France has launched a safe place for science, a $ 17 million program to employ 15 new researchers in artificial intelligence and physics, and scientists in the United States specifically target those who feel “threatening or hindering their research.”

Likewise, the government of the United Arab Emirates offered the entire defense service, a group of elite technicians in the U.S. Defense Department of Digital Intelligence Office, which gathered collectively after it was marginalized by the Ministry of Governmental efficiency (DOGE) to implement artificial intelligence. Some of these former employees told me that Abu Dhabi offered their transfer to the United Arab Emirates for a tour of the country and discussing work there. The representatives of the Gulf nation explained to them that when it came to the salary, there was no price ceiling.

While the United Arab Emirates was a reliable partner in the Ibrahim agreement in which the United States and other regional peace initiatives were mediated, Abu Dhabi is still a smuggling center for advanced American technology on its way to China and other destinations listed in the blacklist. In the context of the comfortable control tools of the Biden administration on the exports of artificial intelligence chips to the United Arab Emirates, the White House reduced the dangers of smuggling chips, indicating that supporting guarantees will not be a priority. In the past, the United Arab Emirates has recruited former American federal employees to spy on foreign governments and monitor local critics. Washington and Abu Dhabi have no military agreements or the exchange of intelligence information, and no values similar to human rights and privacy protection. Paying the best and brightest in the United States and to the hands of non -democratic countries is a catastrophic waste of first -class talents.

In this context, it will require to ensure that the United States in the driver’s seat will develop and implement most of the technology of our lives from the full transformation of the government in the approach to employing employees associated with, publishing and preserving artificial intelligence. Washington must persuade individuals to leave profitable jobs in the private sector to follow up on public service. To do this, the Trump administration will need to take advantage of the current tools such as direct rental salad, alternative wage standards, and flexible work.

The White House will also need to publish experts via a group of agencies to improve the purchase and implementation of prosecution technologies. Without experience in the relevant home to address these goals, the government is likely to bear waste and fraud. The administration should look forward to the previous American digital service-where experts from the White House have been detailed to agencies that need help in solving specific technical problems-as a model to prepare Washington to embrace artificial intelligence. This contradicts a blatant contradiction with the post -Duke digital service, where the employees are published in the mysterious “hunting” tasks with a little strategic direction.

Moreover, Washington needs to be prepared for the future of the American civil service, as an economic necessity and as a strategic freedom. The talented international students who have been educated in the universities of the United States must have to support the development and spread of artificial intelligence in the country a clear way for public service.

Congress must fulfill Trump’s promise to allow foreign students who obtain certificates in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics at the University of the United States to receive green cards automatically when graduating. At the same time, Congress must expand programs such as Cybercorps for service – that provide scholarships in exchange for joining the civil service – to include artificial intelligence experts, quantum computing, and other areas of strategic technological interest.

By stopping Doge, publishing a new strategy for employees, and dumping the federal government with the talent of Amnesty International of the first degree, Washington can guarantee that it remains the leader of global artificial intelligence rather than abandoning its location by veiling it with the best and brightness.
