Sundar Pichai next to Musk, Nadella next to Bezos: Trump's AI execs luncheon meet seating plan
From NVIDIA's Jensen Huang and Elon Musk seated right to Trump, to Microsoft's Satya Nadella across the table, here's a look at who sat where.
US President Donald Trump hosted a lunch with dozens of technology and AI executives at the White House. The meeting came amid mounting fears about AI's potential impact on the labour market, environmental impacts of data centres, and multiple AI-induced cybersecurity incidents.
A seating chart showed that Google's Sundar Pichai was seated next to Elon Musk, while Microsoft's Satya Nadella was seated next to Amazon's Jeff Bezos. Other attendees included Palantir's Alex Karp, AMD's Lisa Su, Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, Anthropic's Dario Amodei, and Nvidia's Jensen Huang.
Trump later told reporters that he is thinking about creating a 10-person committee to oversee the AI sector and that the tech executives signed a "morally binding" agreement, without providing details. He also signed an executive order to rebrand AI as "super intelligence" in all US government documents.
