The Trump administration has likened the need to build out the nation’s artificial intelligence infrastructure to the Manhattan Project, the World War II effort that produced the world’s first atomic bomb. The White House’s point person on the effort, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, has spoken of the “AI arms race” with China as an existential issue for the nation.

obviously trump doesn't know the first goddamn thing about AI

the question is: is he being paid to suck AI's dick? or blackmailed? too bad his DOJ is in the process of hollowing itself out

    He's getting paid to shift things to the people that give him money. Like he cares about national parks enough to shrink any of them on his own....but his doners do for more land space without restrictions, that he can allow permits for.

    Even if the DOJ was fully staffed it'd only be his loyalists for the most part at this point. Good ol' Kash saw to that I imagine. Man the US is in bad shape when the director of the FBI looks like Aziz from Parks and Rec (no offense to him he was doing a comedy) with his wide eyed look all the time. Yes it's the drugs I know, or at least pretty damn sure about

    Lots of assumptions but harder to think of better reasons. Anyone that can tickle Trump's balls (aka give him money) is good to push their agenda.
