President Trump has signed a document with leaders of major artificial intelligence companies, describing it as "morally binding". The document is a set of voluntary safety standards, also referred to as a "statement of principles" or an accord on "super intelligence".

According to House Speaker Mike Johnson, the agreement is voluntary on behalf of the industry and includes a commitment to "robust internal controls".

The signatories include executives from SpaceX, Meta, Anthropic, and Nvidia, such as Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Dario Amodei, and Jensen Huang. Trump likened the document to a "constitution" and noted that he expects "tremendous self-policing" from the companies.
