President Donald Trump said Monday he will not slow artificial intelligence development, arguing the US leads China and must maintain that edge in the technology race. Trump wrote on Truth Social that AI will be bigger than the Industrial Revolution or the internet, and rejected calls to pause progress. He said law enforcement will set limits if needed, while criticizing AI risk warnings as similar to past climate alerts. AI is expected to be on the agenda when Trump hosts Chinese President Xi Jinping in Washington this week, alongside trade and Taiwan. US officials have proposed a communication mechanism for reporting serious AI incidents, while Congress debates regulation.
