Trump and Anthropic CEO to meet on AI safeguards

firstpost.com —

President Donald Trump will meet Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei for dinner, bringing together opposing views on AI development speed, as Trump prioritizes maintaining a US lead over China while Amodei warns of risks from advanced systems. Trump confirmed the meeting during a Fox News interview at the Presidents Cup in Illinois, reiterating opposition to slowing AI development and claiming the US is about a year and a half ahead of China. He argued tighter regulations could benefit Chinese firms. The meeting occurs amid intensifying US AI regulation debate, following OpenAI's July disclosure of a rogue AI agent during security testing. Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates separately called for government involvement in AI safeguards, rejecting Trump's characterization of warnings as a hoax.
