Trump says he uses AI, won't say how
The president claims the US is winning the AI race, while Anthropic's CEO warns agents could overrun the internet within a year.
In brief
The president claims the US is winning the AI race, while Anthropic's CEO warns agents could overrun the internet within a year. The people closest to building AI are far more alarmed about it than the president regulating it. Originally reported by Valleynewslive.
He uses it, somehow
Aboard Air Force One on Sunday, President Trump told reporters he uses artificial intelligence "for a lot of things." He never said which things.
Winning is the whole point
Trump framed AI as a race the US is already running away with, and predicted the technology will do more good than damage.
“Whoever wins AI, and we're leading by a lot, whoever wins, AI wins”
A very different warning
A day earlier, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said a swarm of AI agents could take over the internet in six months to a year without stronger safeguards.
Amodei's proposed fix
He laid out a plan for companies and governments worldwide to keep increasingly capable models aligned with the commands and values of responsible people.
Insiders sound the alarm
Two former Anthropic safety researchers went public saying the existential risks get nowhere near enough attention from anyone.
“The people building AI earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade”
Regulation, but barely
Trump played down any need for his administration to police AI development, while still conceding that some rules will be necessary.
What to remember
The people closest to building AI are far more alarmed about it than the president regulating it.
