Senior administration officials have gathered almost daily in recent months to map out potential guardrails

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has distanced himself from calls for AI development to slow down, claiming that market forces and competition will ensure companies make their models safe. Speaking on social media, Zuckerberg argued that the need for slowing AI development isn't necessary because "people won't want to use agents that are misaligned with them and that don't do what they ask."

The Facebook founder's company, Meta, delayed the release of its AI agent, Muse, due to safety and security concerns, demonstrating that some companies are already self-policing when it comes to AI safety. This stance comes as recent security incidents and warnings from researchers like former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon have raised concerns over the safety of AI agents.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has taken the opposite stance, arguing that industry-wide slowdown or regulation isn't necessary, comparing the situation to the automotive industry's approach to safety incidents.
