Trump: Not worried about AI getting out of control

After the media asked Trump about reports that OpenAI, Anthropic, and safety researchers are investigating tens of thousands of incidents involving problematic behavior in frontier AI models, Trump laughed off concerns about AI "going out of control." The timing is rather delicate: Trump is reportedly hosting a private dinner at the White House tonight for Anthropic CEO Amodei, their first one-on-one meeting, and the tense relationship between the company and the government is showing signs of potential easing. Trump said the United States should not abandon a potentially multi-trillion-dollar industry just because of risks. He argued that companies must address problems as they arise, while the government can step in when necessary.
