AI regulation in the U.S. is getting a lot of attention right now, and for good reason. On July 23, 2025, the White House released a new national AI strategy backed by executive orders, shifting the government’s stance on how AI should be developed and used.
As artificial intelligence becomes more powerful and more embedded in daily life, national leaders are now focusing on growth, innovation, and global competitiveness, shifting away from the previous emphasis on oversight and risk mitigation. But what does it all mean? And more specifically, what does it mean for MediaViz AI and our partners? Here’s what you need to know.
What’s Going On with AI Policy Right Now?
On July 23, 2025, the White House unveiled “Winning the Race: America’s AI Action Plan,” along with three new Executive Orders to implement it. The plan sets out over 90 federal policy actions focused around three key actions:
- Accelerating AI Infrastructure: The U.S. government is aiming to spark a “golden age” of American manufacturing and technological leadership by fast-tracking permits for AI data centers and boosting domestic chip production: all part of what the White House calls building an “AI-ready economy.”
- Promoting AI Exports: The U.S. government is now actively promoting exports of American AI technology, including software, infrastructure, and hardware to allied nations, while simultaneously restricting exports to rivals.
- Preventing “Woke” AI in Federal Systems: One of the executive orders, titled “Preventing Woke AI in the Federal Government,” bans the use of federal AI tools that exhibit perceived ideological bias and requires vendors to certify their AI systems as neutral.
These actions follow a January 2025 executive order that reversed many of the previous presidency’s AI safety mandates, such as transparency requirements and risk reporting for powerful AI systems. Congress is still considering legislation around AI-generated misinformation, deepfakes, and responsible data use, but there’s no federal AI law in place yet.
What Do These Changes Actually Mean?
In summary, the U.S. is now focusing more on growth and innovation than on enforcing AI safety through regulation.
These changes reflect a significant shift toward faster growth and less federal oversight. While that may reduce red tape for developers, it also raises open questions: What happens to standards around fairness, explainability, and harm prevention? Who is responsible for setting the ethical boundaries now?
For now, the government is stepping back from strict oversight, which means companies will need to set their own ethical standards or rely on industry guidance. Time will tell how that affects the broader AI landscape.
What It Means for MediaViz AI
The short answer? Nothing changes for us.
The longer answer: MediaViz AI was built on the values these policies are now debating, and we’ve stuck to them, regardless of the headlines.
We’ve always trained our models exclusively on clean, permissioned datasets. We prioritize transparency in how our AI models make decisions so clients can trust the outputs. We’ve always seen ethics as a business requirement, not a marketing checkbox.
No matter what the current policy is, we’re committed to ethical AI.
Staying Grounded in a Moving Landscape
AI policy may be shifting, but our commitment isn’t. While the government’s role in regulating AI continues to evolve, MediaViz AI will continue doing what we’ve always done: building ethical, explainable, and privacy-conscious AI that businesses can trust. We welcome innovation but not at the cost of responsibility. No matter how the rules change, our foundation stays the same.
