AI: Trump Calls AI Regulation Efforts a „Scam“
The US President rejects the tech industry's requests for regulation. Meanwhile, his party colleague announces an industry meeting at the White House.
US President Donald Trump has rejected calls from industry leaders for stricter regulation of Artificial Intelligence (AI). He believes the US already has sufficient safeguards in place. Trump made the comments on his Truth Social platform, stating that a "strong and smart" president is the only control AI needs, and that the US has that.
He also accused those warning of the technology's dangers of perpetuating a "scam" that would benefit China. The criticism comes after CEOs of leading AI companies, including Anthropic, OpenAI, and xAI's Elon Musk, called for greater government oversight.
