In his latest NASDAQ TradeTalks appearance, Delorean AI CEO Dr. Severence MacLaughlin outlines how thoughtful regulation, real-world expertise, and pro-innovation policy can keep the U.S. ahead in the global AI race.
In this wide-ranging conversation with NASDAQ TradeTalks, Dr. Severence MacLaughlin, CEO of Delorean AI, shares his perspective on the future of artificial intelligence regulation under the current U.S. administration. He argues for a pragmatic approach that prioritizes enforcement of existing data laws over the creation of redundant new policies. Dr. MacLaughlin emphasizes the importance of supporting domestic AI companies through stronger R&D incentives, IP protection, and access to global talent — while cautioning against the overregulation seen in Europe. He also calls for greater AI fluency at the executive level, noting that leadership decisions must be grounded in real-world understanding of the technology to keep pace with global competition.
