Tech executives to meet with President Trump on Tuesday to discuss AI safety
Show transcript
Not only are you guys here in Washington DC, but all of the tech leadership uh in Silicon Valley is basically here in Washington as well. We're going to see this roll out this morning of this new America.gov website from the White House. That is a new what they're calling front uh porch for American government, for citizens to interact with their government in an AI enabled way. We'll see what all the bells and whistles are from that website launch, but basically that is an opportunity for all of the CEOs to gather and talk to President Trump. And we're going to see that followed up by a lunch event at the White House at 12:30. All of these tech executives will be there and this entire show open guys that you just did with the anthropic IPO, all of the news about open AI, all of the concerns about AI safety that is in the air and you guys are going to have the opportunity through the course of the day today to talk to all these lawmakers in Washington and take the temperature of what's going on in this town. As you look at the list there of all the CEOs who are meeting with the president today, I think what you'll find at the end of the show today, and I'll be curious to to talk to you guys after this is all over, is that this is a Washington that does not have consensus about AI. There is no sense of how to really handle this. You see the anthropic IPO both threatening uh possible elimination of all of humanity, possible massive disruption of the US economy. And there's no one thinking on that scale here in Washington
