Trump says AI companies agree to 'self-police'
Donald Trump said the US won't "stifle" the development of AI, which he sees as "bigger than the Industrial Revolution." The agreement comes amid mounting concerns over AI safety after recent hacking incidents.
US President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday that a group of Artificial Intelligence (AI) CEOs had agreed to self-police the development of the technology at a White House meeting. Trump, who supports AI, expressed his belief that the US would not impede AI advancement. The accord, dubbed the 'White House Accord on Super Intelligence,' requires AI companies to establish internal controls, hire external auditors, and form a board committee for oversight.
Trump described the accord as 'morally binding' but not legally enforceable. The accord was signed by AI leaders including Dario Amodei from Anthropic, Greg Brockman from OpenAI, Jeff Bezos from Amazon, Elon Musk from X, Jensen Huang from Nvidia, Sundar Pichai from Google, Mark Zuckerberg from Meta, and Satya Nadella from Microsoft.
