‘President of the Unites States’: Typo spotted in Trump’s White House ‘super intelligence’ accord
The order was also signed by Google's Sundar Pichai, Anthropic's Daria Amodei, Mark Zuckerberg, OpenAI's Greg Brockman, Elon Musk and NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang.
US President Donald Trump convened a gathering of prominent technology executives at the White House for what he dubbed "an extraordinary summit" on AI, focusing on building America's "Golden Age." The summit included leaders from major AI companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Nvidia, Meta, and Google. The meeting followed calls from tech executives and experts for tighter oversight of AI and a slowdown in development due to potential risks to humanity. Here are three key takeaways from the summit:
1. Trump signed a "morally binding" document with the tech leaders, obligating the companies to ensure the safety of their AI systems, implement safeguards to keep models operating as intended, and collaborate with independent auditors to assess their systems' performance and prevent unauthorized access. The accord was signed by Trump, Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, OpenAI President Greg Brockman, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang.
2. Trump proposed setting up a board to oversee AI tool safety, though he did not specify who would serve on the board. He has previously downplayed concerns about AI risks, calling them a "hoax" and suggesting that a "smart president" is the only necessary guardrail.
3. Trump reiterated his support for expanding data centers, which power AI technology. However, the rollout of data centers has faced resistance in some areas due to concerns about electricity usage and potential impacts on communities. Trump assured the tech companies would work to make people "happy" about data center construction and that other locations would be willing to host them if the US halted the project.
He also announced an executive order instructing government departments and agencies to start using the terms "Super Intelligence" (SI) and "Super Intelligence" in official correspondence, reports, and policy documents, replacing the term "artificial intelligence."
