The US Commerce Department is seeking proposals for companies to bundle and export end-to-end AI systems to international markets. The program, created by President Trump's executive order, aims to embed U.S. tech deep into other countries' digital infrastructure. Companies approved will receive government financial incentives to compete in the global AI race. The Commerce Department will not use a set scoring system or checklist to rank proposals and will require companies to include a statement describing how the proposal advances US national interests. The successful program aligns with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick's effort to position the Commerce Department as an international dealmaker and could help shape AI standards abroad without new laws.
