## 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.
## Key takeaway

The people closest to building AI are far more alarmed about it than the president regulating it.
