Understanding the potential value of AI in strengthening American dominance on the world stage, he acted quickly to accelerate its development through multiple initiatives.

By multiplying initiatives and removing barriers to innovation, he seeks to impose American technologies and surpass international competition. This article explores the measures implemented by his administration and the potential repercussions of this strategy on global stability. An Unprecedented Commitment to Artificial Intelligence Barely back in office, Donald Trump immediately made swift and drastic decisions to boost AI innovation in the United States. By repealing his predecessor’s executive order for safe and reliable AI, he paved the way for unhindered technology development, taking into account the desires of tech giants, who demanded total creative freedom. The Stargate Joint Venture
On January 21, 2025, Trump unveiled the Stargate project, an initiative involving Oracle, OpenAI, and SoftBank, aimed at investing « at least $500 billion » in AI-related infrastructure. This project marks a crucial step in establishing a robust infrastructure to foster the development of American AI.
On July 23, 2025, the White House launched an ambitious AI action plan with the goal of « winning the AI race. » This plan, comprised of numerous executive orders, aims to accelerate innovation, strengthen necessary infrastructure, and increase exports of American technology.
The plan is based on three pillars: accelerating AI innovation, strengthening infrastructure (data centers and energy projects), and an international policy to counter Chinese influence. These measures aim to ensure US technological hegemony and assert its leadership on the global stage.
American pressure is raising concerns in Europe, with the challenges posed by its new regulations on data and AI. American companies see these regulations as obstacles to their expansion and are receiving active support from the Trump administration in combating these laws, which it considers restrictive.
