Trump, six tech CEOs sign 'self-policing' AI safety accord

President Donald Trump gathered top technology executives at the White House on September 29 to sign a 'morally binding' accord on developing AI safely, after earlier calling AI risks a 'hoax'.
Signatories included Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, OpenAI's Greg Brockman, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Elon Musk.
The pact calls for robust internal controls, independent external safety audits and a board-level oversight committee, in place of new federal regulation.
