Donald Trump has dismissed suggestions that artificial intelligence advancement needs to be slowed down - after a former employee at a top AI company said that the new tech could kill all humans by 2030. Trump's dampener came after Elon Musk and Sam Altman backed calls for tougher safeguards around artificial intelligence. The high-profile CEOs followed Anthropic boss Dario Amodei's warning that the technology is developing at a pace that could outstrip efforts to keep it under control. The Anthropic boss set out a three-step framework designed to “pace” the development of frontier AI systems. It includes giving independent evaluators permanent, employee-level access to leading AI companies’ systems; co-ordination between firms in democratic countries on shared safety standards; and international co-operation on the risks posed by increasingly capable AI. 00:00 | Andrew's thoughts on the topic 04:26 | Mike Bird, Wall Street editor at The Economist 08:24 | Nick Bostrom, Philosoph
