The White House unveiled a National Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence Friday (March 20), saying that this set of legislative recommendations is designed to help American industry innovate and American people benefit from the technology.

The framework also calls for protecting free speech by preventing AI systems from being used to silence political expression, enabling American dominance in AI by removing barriers to innovation, and developing an AI-ready workforce by expanding workforce development and skills training programs.
