President Donald Trump criticized the "negative forces" that want to slow down the development of artificial intelligence, arguing that the United States must maintain its leadership position in this technology. His statements come at a time of debate about the risks associated with the rapid advancement of AI.

Elon Musk, founder of xAI, and Sam Altman, leader of OpenAI, expressed on Saturday their support for Dario Amodei's proposal, chief executive of Anthropic, to reduce the pace of development of artificial intelligence. This joint position represents a significant change in the tech industry's stance.

The call to slow down comes after several incidents that raised concerns about the dangers of AI. The convergence of opinions among these top figures in the sector reflects a growing recognition of the need for greater caution in the development of this technology.

Why this matters

The change in position by Musk and Altman, two of the most influential figures in the sector, signals a possible convergence in the tech industry on the need for greater caution in AI development. This change can influence future AI regulation policies worldwide, affecting companies, researchers, and consumers.
