G20 members on Wednesday unanimously adopted a US‑proposed framework called the Carolina Principles, endorsing sector‑specific, differentiated regulation for AI and other emerging technologies. The framework calls for testing regimes to weigh the costs of delaying deployment and for stronger public‑private cooperation on technology trials. U.S. Commerce Secretary Lutnick said the adoption was an important win for the Trump administration and Silicon Valley; White House tech adviser Michael Kratsios said the U.S. message was to promote global economic growth and innovation. The principles will be submitted for formal adoption by leaders at the G20 summit in Doral, Florida in December, hosted by Trump.
