WASHINGTON (July 22, 2025)- President Trump is set to release his AI action plan on Wednesday. The plan is expected after Trump called on David Sacks and other White House tech advisers to develop the action plan in a January executive order.
Politico’s E&E reports that “The White House is set to use its forthcoming AI Action Plan to take aim at state and federal AI regulations while unleashing land and energy for data centers and cutting back environmental restrictions.”

Neil Johnson, physics professor, has developed a mathematical formula to identify the “Jekyll-and-Hyde tipping point” in AI, i.e. when the system becomes overstretched and starts producing misinformation or harmful content. This model could eventually help keep AI tools trustworthy and prevent such tipping points.
