Trump rejects calls to slow AI development

@sundeep"Whoever wins AI, wins. That's the power. This is bigger than the internet. This is a revolution. Had a few of them over the last 200 years, but this is a revolution."

@rohanpaul_aiPresident Trump dismissed AI extinction concerns, prioritizing competition with China as frontier-lab researchers urged slower development. Asked directly whether AI could cause human extinction, he said he had no concerns and claimed America led China by roughly a year.

@PolymarketMoneyJUST IN: President Trump rejects calls to slow AI development, saying concerns are being driven by “very negative forces.”

@AndrewCurran_President Trump this morning on if the AI industry should slow down or be more regulated: 'I think you have a lot of negative ⁠forces that are bringing it up that shouldn't be bringing it up, and they're bringing up things that won't happen. But whoever wins with AI wins.'

@menhguinabsolutely cackling at the concept of state-mandated AI accelerationism. like how would you even measure and enforce that? vibe ratings of Palantir FDEs?

@DanielleFongthey called anthropic a supply chain risk and now they're directly saying keep going, please make us the warclaude, so we can win

@tautologerNick Bostrom: in my book I described the risk-race to the bottom as a cautionary tale Donald Trump: at long last, we can engage in the risk-race to the bottom from classic futurism book Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies

@kimmonismusHoly, what a turnaround of events: „Donald Trump has rejected calls for an AI slowdown after tech bosses and Democrats urged tighter regulation of the industry over rising fears that the technology poses an existential threat.“ Trump says: no slow down in AI.

@BoringBiz_“Why do you need the government to stop AI progress inside your private company when you are the CEO of the company already?”

@negligible_cap*TRUMP: ONLY CONTROL THAT AI NEEDS IS A STRONG PRESIDENT *TRUMP SAYS DARIO IS PRETENDING TO BE 'PERFECT LITTLE ANGEL' lol

@AndrewCurran_President Trump on Truth Social says there will be no AI slowdown or pause. It's full speed ahead. He says the entire thing is a "sick conspiracy" against AI and data centres, and the only one who would benefit is China. I will quote: 'Treasonists, Traitors, and Leakers, BEWARE!'

@JasonTrump is right, we need to speed run super-intelligence!

@zephyr_z9@AndrewCurran_ Real AI safety: STRONG and SMART (HIGH IQ!) PRESIDENT OpenAI & Anthropic are in the fake stuff LOL

@JasonTrump to Dario: get back to work, we need to beat China — and traitors will be dealt with.

@AndrewCurran_Tried: Mechanistic Interpretability, Superalignment, industry-led regulatory bodies Wired: STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) PRESIDENT

@mattyglesiasIt’s too bad there’s no major GOP donor who is safety-pilled on AI and could talk to Trump about the (and maybe about solar power and EVs while he’s there)

@rohanpaul_aiPresident Trump just posted on Truthsocial on the AI slowdown talk. "There is a SICK conspiracy going on against AI and Data Centers, and the only one that is happy about it is China. WHOEVER WINS AI, WINS! We are leading China, and all others, and will continue to do so. Conspiracy Theorists, Treasonists, Traitors, and Leakers, BEWARE"

@BrianRoemmele“The only control or "guardrails" that Al needs is a STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) PRESIDENT, and the U.S.A. has that, in spades! The Trump Administration has stopped Al "people" from doing bad, or potentially bad, "things," like Dario (Anthropic!), who is now pretending to be a "perfect little angel" - and we will continue to do so! We already have tremendous CRIMINAL and REGULATORY power over these companies! There is a SICK conspiracy going on against Al and Data Centers, and the only one that is happy about it is China. WHOEVER WINS AI, WINS! We are leading China, and all others, and will continue to do so. Conspiracy Theorists, Treasonists, Traitors, and Leakers, BEWARE! Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

@rohanpaul_aiJournalist: "President Trump, we've seen a lot of concerning reports about AI. Should the AI industry slow down or be more regulated?" President Trump: "Well, I say this: Look, we're leading China in AI. We're the most sophisticated country in the world, and frankly, I want to keep it that way because whoever wins AI wins. We can put guardrails, we can do this and that, but I think you have a lot of negative forces that are bringing it up that shouldn't be bringing it up. They're bringing up things that won't happen. But whoever wins with AI wins." ---- From "Forbes Breaking News" YouTube channel, (full video link in comment)

@kimmonismusHoly, sh*t: Trump is really mad at Dario! There is now slow-down or pause going on with him. To quote him: "'Treasonists, Traitors, and Leakers, BEWARE!'". Id say that settles it. No one is going to slow down now.

@NewsWire_USTRUMP SAYS AI DESTROYING HUMANITY IS A HOAX

@AndrewCurran_President Trump: 'Al taking over the World, destroying Humanity, and all other things bad, is a HOAX' 'It will not be stopped by brilliantly run Destructive Forces during the Term of President DONALD J. TRUMP!'

@MartinShkreliRT @NewsWire_US: TRUMP SAYS AI DESTROYING HUMANITY IS A HOAX

@kimmonismusTrump calls AI talking over the world a Hoax. He adds data center buildout will be the biggest economic development engine in the history. Never seen trump so bullish for AI.

@MikeIsaacper sources, trump is basically stumping for Jensen/Nvidia and data center buildout: "They're [Doomers] playing right into the hands of a lot of people that don't want to see it happen. Political people, and also china. We're not going to let that happen. it's a hoax." — Trump

@pmddomingosThank you, President Trump, for seeing through the AI fearmongering.

@BillOReillyWhen I first heard about A.I., I thought it was a steak sauce. But this technology will soon affect every person on the planet. You may have heard President Trump downplaying the risks of A.I. Many folks believe that. But there IS danger right now. https://www.billoreilly.com/b/Rise-of-the-Machines/817514911473001282.html

@pmddomingosIf Biden was still president, at this point we'd have an AI moratorium and China would be laughing its head off.
