  • one of trump’s more interesting moves last month had nothing to do with immigration or tariffs.

    on september 29, he brought major ai companies including openai, google, meta, anthropic, and nvidia to the white house for a voluntary ai safety agreement. the companies agreed to things like outside auditing and protections against hacking, while trump talked about creating a small oversight group to watch the industry.

    the weird part is that it captures the whole ai moment pretty well.

    governments know this technology could reshape society, but they also don’t want to slow down while another country gets ahead.

    so for now, one of the most powerful technologies ever created is partly being governed by companies promising to behave responsibly.

    that’s a pretty fascinating political experiment.
