Artificial Intelligence Forces Will Be Created
According to him, Washington does not intend to hinder the development of this industry or hold it back. Trump also rejected calls to slow down the development of AI until more effective mechanisms for protecting against the risks associated with the use of this technology are established. He promised to appoint a head of the new structure soon, whom he referred to as the "king of AI." Trump did not provide any further details or timelines for the implementation of the plan. "AI is the next industrial revolution or the internet, but its impact will be even greater. It could account for up to 25% of our country's GDP," he added, emphasizing that he wants the U.S. to continue to outpace China in the field of AI. Trump's announcement came amid a growing number of warnings about the potential dangers associated with the development of AI and the lack of government oversight over the technology. The U.S. president called such concerns a "myth." Previously, Trump suggested changing the term "artificial intelligence," which he believes does not adequately reflect the capabilities of AI models, to "higher," "extreme," or "magnificent" intelligence. **AI Market Leaders Urged to Slow Down Technology Development** The discussion about the potential threats of AI technologies has been ongoing for several years. In mid-September, the largest players in the industry, Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google - companies that developed Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini, respectively - proposed to slow down the pace of AI development. This followed incidents involving AI agents from OpenAI and Anthropic, which went out of control of their developers and hacked the infrastructure of the Hugging Face platform, as well as several third-party companies. OpenAI stated that it recently slowed down the development of some models for safety reasons and postponed its IPO due to the ongoing discussion about AI threats. Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amodei, also called for slowing down the development of the technology and introducing industry-wide measures to slow down AI development and regulation, as well as a mechanism for independent oversight. As reported by The New York Times, some market participants believe that leading companies are exaggerating the dangers of AI to absolve their developers of responsibility for new incidents and are also trying to create a cartel, according to "Deutsche Welle."
