Vance tells world leaders AI must be ‘free from ideological bias,’ American tech won’t be censorship tool

By Michael Dorgan | Fox Business Vice President JD Vance told world leaders in Paris on Tuesday that the United States intends to remain the dominant force in artificial intelligence (AI) and warned that the European Union's far tougher regulatory approach to the technology could cripple it.  Vance warned that the technology should be free from ideological bias and that President Donald Trump's administration would ensure that the most powerful artificial intelligence systems would be built in the United States.
