  "account": "In an interview with CBS's 60 Minutes, US President Donald Trump expressed his belief that artificial intelligence risks can be managed, while signaling a willingness to consider safeguards. When asked if the US should accept the risks posed by AI to stay ahead of China, Trump stated that the dangers were manageable and indicated a possible openness to work with Democrats on implementing such measures. He commented, \"I don't mind guardrails,\" adding that he did not wish for regulations to place the United States in a \"deep second position\" behind China, which he claimed has no comparable restrictions. Although Trump has historically preferred to let technology companies self-regulate rather than impose stringent government controls, his recent remarks hint at a potential shift towards accepting safeguards, though the specifics remain uncertain.",
