Trump Says AI Risks Manageable, Open to Regulatory Guardrails

Cointime update: US President Donald Trump said the risks posed by AI are manageable and signaled openness to setting regulatory guardrails, saying he does not mind such safeguards and is willing to work with Democrats on them. Asked whether the US should accept AI risks to keep its lead over China, Trump said the dangers can be controlled but that he does not want regulation to leave the US a distant second. The remarks mark a shift from his earlier preference for industry self-regulation.
