Trump downplays warnings of AI risks, citing rivalry with China
""You have a lot of very negative forces that are bringing it up that shouldn't be bringing it up and they're bringing up things that won't happen," Trump said"
--- Good that the moron ... er ... Trump is at the same time an AI expert and a perfect fortune teller.
"Trump did not directly address the idea, but said: "We're leading China on AI... and, frankly, I want to keep it that way because whoever wins AI, wins.""
--- If you win in an extinction event, do you win?
"The Anthropic CEO said any slowdown would have to be limited to avoid allowing China to pull ahead."
--- And there's the actual problem.

It's interesting that Trump and Xi BOTH dismissed this warning, with EACH of them citing the dangers of letting the other one win.
