The Trump administration announced the launch of a new program aimed at speeding up the transportation of goods considered essential to the development of artificial intelligence between the US and its closest trading partners. The US State Department said on Wednesday that it will establish a pilot platform in Panama as part of the US-led “silicon-based peace plan” to accelerate trade flows for key products of artificial intelligence. The initiative aims to strengthen supply chain cooperation among allies. The US State Department said in a statement that it will invest up to 50 million US dollars in foreign aid funds to develop and deploy this platform, which will use artificial intelligence technology to speed up logistics processes. US State Department Deputy Secretary of State for Economic Affairs Jacob Helberg said in an email: “The project is expected to speed up logistics and compliance processes. The project focuses on helping Panama and other participating economies track and accelerate the transportation of high-value goods from trusted suppliers, involving artificial intelligence infrastructure, semiconductors, and critical minerals, covering the entire AI supply chain.”
