Trump says top tech firms have signed accord to ‘self-police’ AI development

- House Speaker Mike Johnson described the deal as a 'voluntary' set of commitments, while Trump proposed a committee of roughly 10 people to 'watch over the whole enterprise.'

- While leaders like Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman have urged caution, Congress is unlikely to pass AI legislation soon, leaving safety measures to industry self-policing.
