President Trump signed an executive order Monday launching a comprehensive national strategy for promoting the development of artificial intelligence, saying it will ensure the U.S. remains ahead of China in cutting-edge technologies.

The president's order directs the federal government to prioritize research and development of artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, under coordination through the National Science and Technology Council Select Committee on Artificial Intelligence.
