President Donald Trump said on 60 Minutes that his administration once warned the leader of “one of the big” AI companies to “get ready to go to jail” after someone reported the person for “doing something bad with AI.” Trump wouldn’t name the executive or the company and didn’t say what the alleged conduct was, but he said the person “totally changed everything” after the call and that he didn’t believe it was malicious, even if it could have been. In a September Truth Social post, Trump wrote that his team had stopped AI firms from doing harmful things, “like Dario (Anthropic!),” without saying what Anthropic had been stopped from doing.
