Trump Rejects Amodei’s Call
President Donald Trump rejected Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei’s call to slow the pace of advanced artificial intelligence development. Trump said that existing federal authority and presidential oversight are sufficient. “The only control or ‘guardrails’ that AI needs is a STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) PRESIDENT,” President Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.
Of course, neither is true and the nation does not have a true game plan to control the roll out of AI across industries.
Amodei published an essay last week where he argued that AI capabilities are advancing faster than safety measures designed to govern them. He called for slowing development, implementing new safeguards, and allowing third-party evaluators to verify measures undertaken. Anthropic will implement the evaluator safeguard unilaterally.
