1. Possible AI oversight committee
Trump told reporters he is thinking about creating a 10-person committee to oversee AI after meeting with technology executives. He said the executives signed an agreement that is “morally binding,” but did not detail its terms.
2. Data center concerns
Trump said technology companies would work to make communities “happy” about data center construction, saying the facilities would do things that are “really financially beneficial” for communities. Their expansion has drawn local opposition over electricity demand, utility costs and other impacts.
3. Regulatory efforts stalled
The meeting included executives from Anthropic, Meta, Google, Nvidia and Palantir. Bipartisan Senate efforts on AI regulation have stalled; Senator Ted Cruz said he hopes to move forward after the November midterm elections.
