Trump Proposes a Cut in Research Spending, but a Boost for AI

Trump Proposes a Cut in Research Spending, but a Boost for AI

The U.S. President’s federal budget proposal is heavy on funding to pursue advances in artificial intelligence and quantum technologies, but short on support for more basic science and engineering work. Researchers and policy analysts say that support is critical to spurring innovations in a range of critical areas. Fulton Schools Professor Subbarao Kambhampati, an AI expert, says such funding cuts will risk undermining promising progress in many fields — including those that potentially can boost the capabilities of AI and quantum technologies.
