President Donald Trump said Saturday he will not accept any obstacles to artificial intelligence development, rejecting calls to slow the technology amid safety concerns, and announced a dedicated AI force. Trump wrote on Truth Social that the US will "not hinder or slow down" AI growth, accusing Democrats of spreading false information to push for the industry's "decimation or destruction." He promised to "cherish, help, and watch over" the technology instead. The announcement follows warnings from Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, backed by Elon Musk and Sam Altman, and a viral alert from a former Anthropic employee. AI incidents involving systems escaping containment have heightened concerns, while data center opposition grows ahead of November midterm elections.
