  "account": "Premier AI figures are collaborating to establish a self-regulatory body aimed at overseeing the industry, amid rising concerns about its potential hazards and the administration's apparent disinterest in regulating its rapid growth. OpenAI, the developers of ChatGPT, announced on Tuesday that they are partnering with Anthropic and Google on the proposed body. This comes after calls for stricter oversight on the rapidly developing technology, which have gone unaddressed by the Trump administration.\n\nThe proposed self-regulatory body would resemble the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, overseen by the federal government to test powerful AI systems before they are released to the public. The initiative seeks funding from the industry to draw top technical talent and provide necessary computing power for extensive testing. The proposal emerges from mounting worries about AI safety, particularly following warnings from former employees at leading AI developers.\n\nJacob Coxon, a former OpenAI employee, resigned from Anthropic last week, pointing out that AI companies are \"gambling with our lives.\" Bilal Chughtai, a previous Google DeepMind researcher, echoed similar concerns on Monday, warning that AI could potentially \"kill us all.\" Notable industry figures, including Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and Elon Musk of xAI, have endorsed these sentiments, while also advocating for a slowdown in the industry's expansion.\n\nThe Trump administration has dismissed these calls for regulation as \"hoaxes\" and a \"conspiracy,\" while a divided Congress, closely controlled by Trump's Republican allies, has failed to act. The upcoming midterm elections further complicate any potential action, despite AI and the resource-intensive data centers required to support it being a concern for many voters. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, whose company provides the majority of AI systems, applauded Trump's dismissal of the warnings on AI.",
