# America's AI Action Plan **Entity class:** Policy document with related executive orders (United States, July 23, 2025) **Domain:** AI Policy / National Standards / Export Strategy **Concept Hub:** [[wiki/Sovereign AI|Sovereign AI]] **Alias:** Winning the AI Race: America's AI Action Plan ## Definition ***Winning the AI Race: America's AI Action Plan* is the White House plan released on July 23, 2025, with more than 90 federal policy actions under three pillars (accelerating innovation, building American AI infrastructure, and leading in international diplomacy and security), issued alongside executive orders that set epistemic requirements for federally procured language models and promote the worldwide export of the American AI technology stack.** ## The Two Definitional Orders **Executive Order 14320, "Promoting the Export of the American AI Technology Stack,"** states that "The United States must not only lead in developing general-purpose and frontier AI capabilities, but also ensure that American AI technologies, standards, and governance models are adopted worldwide to strengthen relationships with our allies and secure our continued technological dominance." The plan directs the Commerce and State Departments to deliver "full-stack AI export packages" to allies. **Executive Order 14319, "Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government,"** sets two Unbiased AI Principles for federal procurement. Truth-seeking: "LLMs shall be truthful in responding to user prompts seeking factual information or analysis. LLMs shall prioritize historical accuracy, scientific inquiry, and objectivity, and shall acknowledge uncertainty where reliable information is incomplete or contradictory." Ideological neutrality: LLMs "shall be neutral, nonpartisan tools that do not manipulate responses in favor of ideological dogmas such as DEI." ## Authorship Reading [[articles/war with empire/Authorship of the West|Authorship of the West]] reads the pair as Webster's move for the machine age: one order exports the American reference layer as a technology stack, the other specifies how that layer must treat history and truth. Together they assert that the standard for machine language, like Webster's standard for American English, will be set in America. Whether federal doctrine will name the definition of Western civilization as the object of that standard is unresolved; the deciding evidence is federal evaluation standards, export-package requirements and model outputs. ## Relationships - **Concepts:** [[wiki/Sovereign AI|Sovereign AI]] · [[wiki/Evaluation Grammar|Evaluation Grammar]] · [[wiki/Lexicographic Succession|Lexicographic Succession]] · [[wiki/Authorship of the West|Authorship of the West]] · [[wiki/Substrate Repatriation|Substrate Repatriation]]. - **Precedent:** [[wiki/Noah Webster|Noah Webster]] · [[wiki/An American Dictionary of the English Language|An American Dictionary of the English Language]]. - **Related legal instruments:** Executive Order 14319, “Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government” · Executive Order 14320, “Promoting the Export of the American AI Technology Stack.” These are separate presidential orders issued alongside the plan, not alternate names for it. - **Source article:** [[articles/war with empire/Authorship of the West|Authorship of the West]] in [[collections/War With Empire|War With Empire]]. ## Simple Reminders, Quotations, and Thoughts > “The United States must not only lead in developing general-purpose and frontier AI capabilities, but also ensure that American AI technologies, standards, and governance models are adopted worldwide to strengthen relationships with our allies and secure our continued technological dominance.” > **— The White House**, *Executive Order 14320, Promoting the Export of the American AI Technology Stack, July 23, 2025* [[reminders/Civilization/American AI Technologies, Standards, and Governance Models Should Be Adopted Worldwide by The White House|American AI Technologies, Standards, and Governance Models Should Be Adopted Worldwide by The White House]] > “LLMs shall be truthful in responding to user prompts seeking factual information or analysis.

America copied it with Webster and said "we need our own language system." Now we're building machines that ARE the dictionary, and whoever writes their definitions writes what the West means for the next 1000 years. Do we want to rent that definition from London again, or author it ourselves?” > **— Bryant McGill**, *September 2026* [[reminders/Civilization/Whoever Writes the Machine Dictionary Writes What the West Means by Bryant McGill|Whoever Writes the Machine Dictionary Writes What the West Means by Bryant McGill]] > “America intends to plant a flag declaring that Western philosophy is governed by American philosophy rather than by the ancient corridors of Europe.” > **— Bryant McGill**, *Authorship of the West, September 2026* [[reminders/Civilization/America Intends to Govern Western Philosophy by Bryant McGill|America Intends to Govern Western Philosophy by Bryant McGill]] ## Sources / Provenance - The White House, [White House Unveils America's AI Action Plan](https://www.whitehouse.gov/releases/2025/07/white-house-unveils-americas-ai-action-plan) (July 23, 2025). - [Executive Order 14319, Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government](https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/07/28/2025-14217/preventing-woke-ai-in-the-federal-government) (*Federal Register*, July 28, 2025). - [Executive Order 14320, Promoting the Export of the American AI Technology Stack](https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2025/07/28/2025-14218/promoting-the-export-of-the-american-ai-technology-stack) (*Federal Register*, July 28, 2025).
