US is the leader in AI, and plans to keep it that way: VP JD Vance at Paris Summit

US Vice President JD Vance, speaking at the AI Action Summit in Paris on Tuesday, pledged that the US would safeguard its artificial intelligence (AI) and semiconductor technologies from theft and misuse, emphasizing a firm stance against the “weaponization” of critical technologies.

He detailed the Trump administration’s approach to artificial intelligence (AI), emphasizing a focus on innovation, deregulation, free speech protection, and safeguarding US workers.

Vance likened the current AI advancements to the onset of a new industrial revolution, underscoring the administration’s commitment to positioning the United States as a leader in the AI-driven economy.

“Some authoritarian regimes have stolen and used AI to strengthen their military intelligence and surveillance capabilities, capture foreign data, and create propaganda to undermine other nations’ national security,” Vance said.

He vowed that the administration would “block such efforts, full stop.”

Vance outlined a multi-pronged approach to achieving this, including working with allies to bolster protective measures and closing avenues that could allow adversaries to access sensitive AI capabilities.

Vance on USA’s AI leadership

At the Paris AI Summit, the vice president underscored America’s commitment to maintaining its leadership in artificial intelligence while emphasizing the need for global collaboration.

“The United States of America is the leader in AI, and our administration plans to keep it that way,” Vance declared, calling on international partners to foster trust through regulatory frameworks that encourage innovation rather than stifle it.

He urged European allies, in particular, to approach AI’s potential with “optimism.”

The vice president criticized reports of foreign governments considering restrictive measures on US tech companies, warning, “America cannot and will not accept that, and we think it’s a terrible mistake.”

Vance also highlighted the transformative potential of AI, likening it to “a new industrial revolution,” but cautioned against over-regulation and monopolistic control that could suppress innovation and free thought.

“The Trump administration will ensure that AI systems developed in America are free from ideological bias and never restrict our citizens’ right to free speech,” he said, reaffirming the government’s commitment to preserving an open exchange of ideas.

DeepSeek worries at Paris

The summit’s discussions have largely revolved around China’s AI advancements, particularly its DeepSeek model, which claims performance comparable to OpenAI’s o1 reasoning model but at a fraction of the cost.

While Vance avoided mentioning DeepSeek by name, he criticized “cheap tech in the marketplace” subsidized by authoritarian regimes, hinting at concerns over China’s influence.

Vance also cautioned against nations collaborating with firms tied to such regimes. “Collaborating with such parties means chaining your nation to an authoritarian master that seeks to infiltrate, dig in, and seize your information infrastructure,” he said.

His remarks come amid rising geopolitical tensions over emerging technologies, with the US seeking to protect its dominance in AI and chip development while rallying global allies to adopt similar safeguards.
