AI founders welcome Trump's push for industry self-policing on safety

Original: In Silicon Valley, AI founders cheer Trump’s calls for the industry to police itself on safety

President Trump has called on the artificial intelligence industry to police itself on safety rather than face government regulation, and many Silicon Valley AI founders have publicly welcomed the approach. Wire coverage picked up by outlets across the United States shows industry leaders favoring lighter-touch oversight, a stance that has reignited debate over whether voluntary commitments are enough to manage AI risks.

Why now: New reporting on Trump's safety remarks and the enthusiastic reaction from AI founders is being widely syndicated across US news outlets.
