Trump Resists Calls to Regulate AI Amid Warnings of Existential Risk
WHY IT MATTERS
The debate over AI regulation highlights the need for international coordination to manage the risks of rapidly advancing AI, with some experts warning that the US and China may be in a 'race' that could have disastrous consequences if not managed carefully.
What happened
US President Donald Trump has pushed back against concerns over the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, suggesting that 'very negative forces' are behind warnings of its potential to lead to human extinction. Trump's comments come after a week of concerns in the US following warnings from two Anthropic researchers.
The researchers, who have resigned from the company, are calling for international coordination to manage the risks of AI, citing the need to avoid a 'race' with China. Meanwhile, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has outlined a three-step framework to pace development and mitigate risks.
Some AI CEOs are also pushing for slowing the advancement of AI models, with the Pentagon having previously warned of risks from Anthropic's model.
