President Meets with AI Leader After Court Setback
President Donald Trump had plans to dine with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, a leading voice in the AI industry, amid growing concerns about the technology’s potential risks and benefits. The meeting came just two days after Amodei’s company faced a setback in a court case against the government over its barring of Anthropic’s products for Defense Department work. Trump has been a champion of AI development, often warning that the US must remain ahead of China in the technological arms race. The meeting was reported by the Associated Press.
