Trump puts trust in AI bosses to 'police themselves'
As fears mount over the safety of rapidly advancing AI models, US President Donald Trump gathered tech leaders at the White House on Tuesday where he said they signed a "morally binding" commitment to self-regulate and build adequate safeguards on the fast-moving technology. "They're going to police themselves," Trump said after the meeting.
US President Donald Trump met with tech leaders at the White House, where they signed a morally binding commitment to self-regulate and build safeguards into artificial intelligence (AI). According to Trump, the executives, including Jensen Huang, Greg Brockman, and Dario Amodei, agreed to "police themselves".
The meeting, which included 31 guests such as Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Sundar Pichai, comes amid growing concerns over the safety and potential impact of rapidly advancing AI models. There have been recent incidents, including a breach of Hugging Face, a platform for sharing AI models, and OpenAI cancelling the release of its latest model, Astra 6.1, after it failed to meet safety standards.
The agreement, dubbed the White House Accord, carries no legal force and sets out no clear penalties for breaking it. Euronews reported that the pact allows the tech industry to set its own standards for AI development.
