The Trump administration’s 10-year ban on AI regulation allows AI to operate without oversight, potentially leading to a surveillance state where citizens are sorted, scored, and monitored by machinery.

Trump’s latest legislative initiative – a 10-year ban on AI regulation buried within the “One Big Beautiful Bill” – strips state and local governments of the ability to impose any guardrails on artificial intelligence until 2035.
