Trump’s 60 Minutes interview touched on AI safety, threat to arrest an AI exec

In a 60 Minutes interview, Trump said the risk from AI is "not nearly as real" as executives claim and can be managed, and said the DOJ threatened an unnamed leader of "one of the big ones" AI companies with jail, after which "this person totally changed everything." He said he would work with Democrats on AI safety and doesn't mind guardrails but doesn't want the US put in "a deep second position," claiming China has no guardrails beyond whatever Xi says.
