‘Almost like a constitution’: Trump, top US tech CEOs sign AI safety pact
US President Donald Trump and prominent technology CEOs have signed a voluntary accord to enhance artificial intelligence safety controls. The "Joint Commitment On Frontier Responsibilities" outlines four layers of internal and external safeguards, including independent audits and board oversight. The agreement comes amid ongoing debates over AI's potential risks while the administration promotes rapid AI growth.
Trump described the pact as "almost like a constitution" and positioned it as "morally binding". The accord does not impose legal requirements and allows for future regulation if necessary. Companies agreed to meet regularly to establish safety standards and best practices. Despite skepticism from some experts, the agreement aims to facilitate "tremendous self-policing" within the industry.
