President Trump Is on the Line About an A.I. Slowdown
By Kalley Huang, Mike Isaac and Karen Weise · The New York Times
Why we recommend it
This report brings the AI safety debate into focus through the public positions of government and industry leaders. Read alongside our earlier selections, it provides context for understanding where those positions differ on development speed and oversight.
Summary
The New York Times reports that President Trump called Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang while Huang was onstage at a Los Angeles conference. During the call, Trump dismissed warnings about AI dangers and criticized calls to slow development and introduce regulation. The report contrasts that position with calls for government involvement from companies including Anthropic.
