President Donald Trump’s second inauguration was undoubtedly a star-studded event, with a lot of celebrating flocking to Washington DC, to greet the new US President. According to Reuters, US President Donald Trump has withdrawn Joe Biden’s 2023 executive order intended at mitigating the hazards linked with artificial intelligence.
Biden’s executive order required creators of AI systems posing hazards to National security, the economy, public health, or safety to submit the results of safety tests to the US government before they were made public. This command was carried out under the Defence Production Act. Additionally, it mandated the federal agencies set testing standards and handle risks associated with nuclear, biological, radiological, chemical, and cyber security threats.
Highlights from US President Donald Trump’s second inauguration address
US President Donald Trump’s second inaugural address was a familiar echo of his first, with a harsh condemnation of the country’s current situation and lofty promises to repair its issues. 8 years ago, Trump promised to eliminate American Carnage immediately. On Monday, he announced that the country’s “decline” would halt immediately ushering in “the golden age of America”.
Trump’s speech was remarkable for its long list of policy suggestions which appeared more appropriate for a State of the Union address. However, the overall themes remained distinctly Trumpian, with the president presenting himself as a national savior. Because it was chilly outside, Trump deviated from the convention and gave his speech inside the capital Rotunda. He was then joined by a dozen elected officials, pro-Trump VIPs, and prominent people like tech tycoon Elon Musk.
What does India stand to gain from Trump 2.0?
India will eagerly follow Donald Trump’s return to the White House. It has important ramifications for the two countries’ bilateral relationships. Trump is expected to retain his tough position on trade, which could harm US-India Economic Ties. His protectionist tactics, including as increasing tariffs and encouraging American manufacturing, may lead to fresh confrontations over trade agreements. Particularly around technology and medicines. Trump has, however, also been an outspoken advocate for India’s strategic significance, especially in the Indo-Pacific area, where the US seeks to offset China’s expanding power.
What’s next?
Confirming expectations of rapid action on his first day, Trump issued a number of executive orders to be signed immediately. Many of which dealt with immigration. These included proclaiming a state of emergency at the southern US border to deploy the military. It also includes moves to repeal birthright citizenship. He also promised to classify drug cartels as international terrorist organizations and repeal the electric vehicle requirement. And create an external revenue service to collect import duties without specifying the rates. He also promised to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America and to “take back” the Panama Canal.
