Trump meets AI leaders, announces voluntary self-regulation accord

Former President Donald Trump met with leaders from major AI companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Amazon, to discuss the future of artificial intelligence. During the meeting, Trump announced a voluntary accord for AI companies to self-police their technology, emphasizing that the government would not stifle its development, which he believes will surpass the industrial revolution. While some executives expressed concerns about AI safety and the need to slow development, others, like Jensen Huang and Mark Zuckerberg, downplayed these worries, focusing on company responsibility. Trump also highlighted the global competition in AI, particularly with China, and discussed the development of data centers. AI
