US Aims for AI Education Dominance

Published on 4.24.25

  The Trump administration's efforts to advance artificial intelligence (AI) education in the US are part of a broader strategy to maintain America's global lead in AI technology and counter China's growing influence. A key aspect of this initiative is the establishment of a White House task force on AI education, led by Michael Kratsios and David Sacks, which will partner with industry, academia, and non-profits to teach students "foundational AI literacy and critical thinking skills." Education Secretary Linda McMahon is expected to prioritize grant funding for teacher training on using AI in the classroom, which could help address concerns about the potential misuse of AI tools and promote critical thinking among users. The initiative also aims to equip students with skills necessary to navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of AI technology.
