Trump summoned tech barons to the White House and decided: AI companies will police themselves

US President Donald Trump convened top technology industry executives, including Elon Musk, Jensen Huang, and Jeff Bezos, for a lunch at the White House. The meeting ended without binding regulation; instead, the CEOs signed a voluntary agreement for safety testing and mutual oversight, which Trump defined as "morally binding." The administration is pushing for American supremacy against China.

US President Donald Trump convened top technology industry executives at the White House for a lunch meeting to discuss artificial intelligence regulation. Participants included Elon Musk, Jensen Huang (Nvidia), Jeff Bezos, and the CEOs of Anthropic, Google, Meta, OpenAI, and SpaceXAI. The meeting ended without binding regulation; instead, the CEOs signed a voluntary agreement to adopt safety policies, including risk assessments and system evaluations by external parties. Trump told reporters that "everything will be fine" and defined the agreement as "morally binding." The document lacks practical details and relies on company promises. The lenient approach comes amid growing public concern in the US about the pace of AI advancement and its inherent dangers. Trump continues to push for American supremacy against China, dismissing criticism of data center construction as a hoax by the Democratic Party.
