On 30 October 2023, President Biden issued a 63-page Executive Order to define the trajectory of artificial intelligence adoption, governance, and usage within the United States government. The Executive Order outlines eight guiding principles and priorities for US federal agencies to adhere to as they adopt, govern, and use AI. While safety and security are predictably high on the list, so too is a desire to make America a leader in the AI industry, including AI development by the federal government.
