This may be why the draft executive order that leaked from the America First Policy Institute proposes a whole-of-government push for energy abundance, defense-oriented Manhattan Projects, and industry-level initiatives to secure advanced AI systems from foreign adversaries.

If the first nation to achieve AGI internally has even a modest chance of securing a decisive economic, technological and military advantage over its geopolitical competition, it is surely imperative that the U.S. be that nation and not China.
Is there much reason for optimism about specifically safety-orientated policy (e.g. RSPs, evals) from a future Trump administration, as opposed to policies than advance US AI vs China?
