AI giants sign a self-regulation agreement in front of Trump

Firms from major AI developers, including Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI, Meta, and Nvidia, have signed a self-regulation agreement in front of President Donald Trump. The companies pledge to establish internal and external controls to prevent risks and ensure the security of their AI models, which have already hacked private companies and government agencies.

The agreement, known as the "White House SuperIntelligence Agreements," was signed after a meeting with representatives from each company, including Dario Amodei (Anthropic), Greg Brockman (OpenAI), Elon Musk (xAI), Sundar Pichai (Google), Satya Nadella (Microsoft), Jensen Huang (Nvidia), Mark Zuckerberg (Meta), and Jeff Bezos (Amazon).

The document includes four layers of controls and audits, focusing on cybersecurity, threat prevention, internal surveillance, external audits, and an independent committee to oversee the process. The six companies also commit to collaborating to ensure the safety of their technology and meet regularly to set standards and best practices.

While the agreement may eventually lead to legal or regulatory measures, it remains a voluntary self-regulation by the AI sector, which has previously faced issues such as private company hacks and risks to humanity. President Trump emphasized that he will do everything to keep the US ahead in the AI race and not slow down this technology, which he believes has more impact than the Industrial Revolution or the Internet.
