Elon Musk will play a key role in the new Trump administration, advising on artificial intelligence (AI) and working to make the government more efficient. An AI advocacy group wants Trump to appoint Musk as a special adviser on AI because of his work with Tesla, xAI, and his advocacy for AI safety. Musk has also said he would lead Trump's proposed "Department of Government Efficiency," which aims to cut waste and reduce regulations. Musk believes he can cut $2 trillion from the federal budget, but experts are skeptical. Trump also plans to boost AI development in the United States. He's expected to undo Biden's AI executive order and wants to create a business-friendly environment for AI companies, including reducing environmental regulations. Meanwhile, SoftBank, a Japanese company, is investing heavily in AI by building supercomputers with Nvidia's latest AI chips. Finally, demand for AI is growing, with companies seeing a strong return on their AI investments, particularly in areas like productivity and customer engagement.
