Trump rejects tech industry’s calls for AI slowdown
US President Donald Trump has brushed aside concerns raised by AI leaders – including Elon Musk, Dario Amodei and Sam Altman – about the pace of its development, branding them “very negative forces”.
Trump says the US must maintain its dominance over China in artificial intelligence, despite dire warnings from insiders it could lead to the extinction of the human race.
As the AI alarm bells continue to grow louder, Australia’s government says it’s taking these calls from the tech industry for a slowdown seriously.
