Anthropic CEO to dine with Trump at White House

aljazeera.com —

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei will have a private dinner with US President Donald Trump at the White House on Sunday evening, marking their first one-on-one meeting after months of conflict between the AI startup and the administration. Trump confirmed the dinner, reiterating his opposition to slowing AI development, arguing regulations would let China overtake the US. He acknowledged Amodei's risk concerns but stressed maintaining a technological edge, claiming the US leads China by about 18 months. The meeting follows a federal appeals court upholding the Pentagon's "supply chain risk" classification of Anthropic, barring military use of its models. Amodei was also absent from a state dinner for China's president, and Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson will meet AI executives on Tuesday.
