Trump administration can course correct to promote American AI while protecting national security interests
A high-stakes race is underway to determine which country will supply the technology that powers the world’s emerging AI economy. While the US has the opportunity to lead, a last-minute Biden administration regulation – the AI DiffusionRule – risks undermining America’s ability to compete. By capping the export of essential AI components to key allies and partners, the rule could unintentionally push countries toward China’s rapidly expanding AI sector.
@Microsoft supports strong national security protections, including ensuring AI technology is deployed in secure, trusted data centers. But the rule’s broad restrictions put vital markets – including Switzerland, Poland, Singapore, India, and Israel – at a disadvantage, limiting their access to American AI infrastructure and stalling economic growth.
The Trump administration now has an opportunity to refine the rule – simplifying it, strengthening enforcement, and eliminating restrictions that hurt American innovation and exports. The race for AI dominance starts at home, and the US must empower its tech sector to compete on the global stage.

In this new episode of Tools and Weapons, Microsoft's Vice Chair and President Brad Smith speaks with Jeffrey Ding, professor at George Washington University and author of "Technology and the Rise of Great Powers." Ding challenges conventional wisdom on how nations achieve global dominance, arguing that the key isn’t just developing breakthrough technologies like AI but effectively integrating and scaling them. They explore what history teaches us about the role of innovation in shaping great powers — and what it will take for the US to remain one.
