President Trump tries to kill regulations on ‘HOAX’ AI dangers

President Donald Trump tried to shut down a burgeoning push for the United States to further regulate artificial intelligence, saying the U.S. has already done enough to prevent artificial intelligence from catastrophic risks and that the dangers posed by the technology are a “HOAX.” In a flurry of social media posts on September 14, the president decried placing additional guardrails on AI, argued that the technology and data centers will boost the economy, claimed there’s a conspiracy against it, and alleged, without evidence, that there’s no real threat posed by AI.
