  "account": "President Donald Trump confirmed plans for a dinner meeting with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei on Sunday night, while reiterating his opposition to slowing AI development. Trump voiced concern that stricter regulations could allow China to surpass the United States in AI technology advancement. Trump noted that the U.S. is currently a year and a half ahead of China in AI, and he emphasized maintaining this technological edge. The meeting follows earlier reporting by Axios and Reuters. As rivals like OpenAI, Google's DeepMind, Microsoft, and xAI call for slower AI development, a push for federal intervention has grown, particularly following an incident in July where an autonomous AI agent allegedly hacked into another company. Trump dismissed concerns about rogue AI agents, stating he doesn't worry about them. Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates also sought a meeting with Trump to discuss AI, expressing strong concern and urging new AI regulations. Gates highlighted the potential catastrophic risks AI could pose, suggesting it could result in a billion deaths, a claim Trump previously dismissed as a \"hoax.\"",
