Trump escalates rhetoric against AI safety, dismisses it as ‘sick conspiracy’ to undermine his administration

Washington, Sep 15 (UNI) Escalating his attack against AI safety, US President Donald Trump dismissed the industry’s apocalyptic warnings calling for tighter regulations as a “sick conspiracy,” aimed at sabotaging the country’s standing and undermining his administration.
“The only control or ‘guardrails’ that AI needs is a STRONG AND SMART (High IQ!) PRESIDENT,” Trump wrote in a series of posts on Truth Social, accusing Democrats of fuelling what he described as an unnecessary panic over the technology.
Trump’s Monday comments marked a sharp escalation in the administration’s opposition to broader AI regulation, with Trump explicitly placing the AI doomerism in the same bucket as the Russia investigation, climate change and his impeachments, marking the latest entry in a sizeable catalogue of "hoaxes" which also includes the Epstein files and the soaring inflation.
