AB - This study examines the evolving trajectory of U.S. strategies in cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence(AI), with particular attention to the shifting patterns of international engagement. Despite the growing imperative for global cooperation under the emerging ‘cyber-AI nexus’, U.S. approach is increasingly leaning toward fragmented and transactional forms of collaboration, moving away from comprehensive and integrated alliance cooperation grounded in shared values. To substantiate this argument, the study examines how successive administrations-from Biden to Trump’s second term-have framed international cooperation and alliance diplomacy in the domains of cybersecurity and AI. The study investigates the guiding principles, initiatives, cooperation platforms, and governance mechanisms embedded in these strategies, to identify distinctive characteristics across periods and capture broader trends of change over time. Based on the analysis, the study traces how the evolving trajectory of U.S. alliance diplomacy has responded to the challenges emerging from the cyber–AI nexus.
