President Donald Trump confirmed plans for a dinner meeting with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei on Sunday night, but reaffirmed his opposition to slowing AI development. Trump expressed concern that new regulations could allow China to surpass the US in AI advancement, despite acknowledging Amodei's worries about the risks of rapid AI progress.
Trump stated that maintaining the US's technological edge over China is more important, as the country is currently about a year and a half ahead.

Trump dismissed concerns about the risks of AI, stating he doesn't worry about rogue AI agents and remains confident in the technology's potential.
