Roughly 25,000 people have expressed interest in joining the Trump administration's cadre of engineers known as Tech Force, a senior Trump administration official said on Tuesday, as the U.S. government looks to install staff with artificial intelligence expertise in federal roles.

一位特朗普政府的高级官员周二表示，约有2.5万人表示有兴趣加入特朗普政府的工程师团队“科技部队”。 目前美国政府正寻求为联邦职位配备具备人工智能专业知识的人员。

The Trump administration will use that list to recruit software and data engineers, in addition to other tech roles, said Scott Kupor, director of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, in a post, on X. Reuters could not independently verify the 25,000 figure.

美国人事管理办公室主任斯科特·库珀在社交平台X上发帖称，特朗普政府将利用这份名单招募软件和数据工程师以及其他技术职位。 路透社无法独立核实2.5万这一数字。

The interested candidates will compete for 1,000 spots in the first Tech Force cohort. The recruits will spend two years working on technology projects inside federal agencies, including the Departments of Homeland Security, Veterans Affairs, and Justice, among other government offices, Kupor said previously. The hiring initiative is part of the Trump administration's AI agenda. Previous U.S. presidents have launched similar initiatives to bring tech talent into government, including former President Joe Biden.

有意向的候选人将竞争首批“科技部队”1000个席位中的岗位。 库珀此前表示，被录用者将在国土安全部、退伍军人事务部和司法部等联邦机构内开展为期两年的技术项目工作。 此项招聘计划是特朗普政府人工智能议程的一部分。 此前包括前总统乔·拜登在内的美国历任总统也曾推出类似计划，将科技人才引入政府。

President Donald Trump, in the first months of his second term, focused on eliminating government jobs, with exceptions for positions his administration said were necessary to maintain "national security." Tech Force is a departure from the downsizing campaign.

美国总统特朗普在第二任期初期曾着力削减政府职位， 但其政府称对维护“国家安全”必要的岗位除外。 “科技部队”的推出标志着其偏离了此前的精简裁员路线。
