In July 2025, President Trump described AI as “a beautiful baby that’s born.” He said the government should “grow that baby and let that baby thrive” and warned against stopping it “with politics” or “foolish rules and even stupid rules,” echoing what Vice President Vance had said in February of the same year at an AI summit in Paris: “The AI future is not going to be won by hand-wringing about safety.” Nine months later, in May 2026, The New York Times reported that the Trump administration was considering an executive order to create, among other things, a formal government review process for new AI models before they are released to the public.

The AI baby grew up fast.
