Trump confirms meeting with Anthropic's Amodei, repeats dismissal of AI fears

Amodei has urged slower AI development and safety rules while Trump says new regulation would weaken U.S. competition with China.

  • President Donald Trump hosted Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei for a private White House dinner yesterday evening, marking their first one-on-one meeting after months of public friction between the startup and the administration.
  • A federal appeals court ruling on Friday upheld the Pentagon's decision to blacklist Anthropic as a 'supply chain risk,' a designation that prevents the company from working with federal defense contractors following a bitter contract dispute.
  • Amodei has advocated for slowing frontier AI development to address safety risks, a position President Trump dismissed as a 'hoax' while prioritizing speed to maintain technological leadership over China.
  • The private dinner serves as a precursor to tomorrow's broader White House meeting, where President Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson will host leaders from major AI companies to discuss industry safety responsibilities.
  • Administration officials emphasize that the president remains focused on maintaining United States 'Super Intelligence' leadership while balancing industry innovation with his economic agenda amid ongoing safety debates.
