Vice President JD Vance outlined a vision of American dominance in the global AI race on Tuesday, warning that Washington will block foreign efforts to arm the new technology.
“Some authoritarian regimes have stolen and used AI to strengthen their military intelligence and security capacities, to record foreign data and create propaganda to undermine the national security of other countries,” he said during an address on the AI ​​Action Summit in Paris.
“I want to be clear, this administration will block such efforts, full stop.”
The vice president makes his international debut while the White House positions him as a roaming mouthpiece for Donald Trump.
He will meet French President Emmanuel Macron, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the chairman of the European Commission, later in the day.
And on Thursday he flies to Germany for the Munich safety conference.
But on Tuesday, world leaders brought together a big top about a technology that is about to increase the workplace and global relationships.
“I am not here this morning to talk about AI safety, which was the title of the conference a few years ago,” he said. “I'm here to talk about AI opportunity.”

He shot Europe and said it had become too focused on regulations because he said the US would remain the leader in technology
“This administration will ensure that American AI technology is the gold standard worldwide, and we are the partner par excellence for other foreign countries and certainly companies while expanding their own use of AI,” he said.
'Number two, we believe that excessive regulation of the AI ​​sector could kill a transforming industry, just as it starts, and we will do everything we can to encourage a pro-growth AI policy, and I would like to see that deregulating taste his way to many of the conversations at this conference. '
He also said that the US would work to ensure that the technology remained free of 'ideological bias'.
