In particular, the order (1) sets out the new national policy “to sustain and enhance America’s global AI dominance in order to promote human flourishing, economic competitiveness, and national security”; (2) requires the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) along with other executives to develop and submit an action plan to achieve the above policy within 180 days; (3) requires all agencies to review, revise, suspend or rescind any existing policies, directives, regulations, orders and other actions that were taken under the now-revoked Executive Order 14110 that are now inconsistent with the above policy; and (4) requires the OMB to revise its OMB Memoranda M-24-10 and M-24-18 as necessary to make them consistent with the above policy.
