The Trump-Vance administration’s support base is suspicious of academia, and has been willing to defund scientific research of the grounds of it being too left-wing. There is a schism emerging between multiple factions of the right-wing, the right-wingers that are more tech-oriented and the ones that are nation/race-oriented (the H1B visa argument being an example). This could lead to a decrease in support for AI in the future.
Another possibility is that the United States could lose global relevance due to economic and social pressures from the outside world, and from organizational mismanagement and unrest from within. Then the AI industry could move to the UK/EU, turning the main players in AI to the UK/EU and China.
