In brief

  • Trump released a one-page AI accord signed by the heads of Google, Anthropic, Meta, OpenAI, X and Nvidia, asking them to voluntarily "self-police" their models amid rising concern over AI risks.
  • The pact lays out four measures—internal controls (with a focus on cybersecurity, biosecurity and chemical threats), an internal verification team, an external auditor and independent board oversight—and says the steps could eventually become law.
  • It carries no penalties and drew criticism as thin and nonbinding; it follows rogue-agent incidents, including an OpenAI breach of an Australian government site.

President Donald Trump released a one-page artificial intelligence accord Tuesday, signed by the leaders of the biggest AI companies, that asks them to voluntarily police their own systems as fears mount over the technology's risks.

Trump posted the document to his Truth Social platform after gathering executives at the White House, describing it as "morally binding."
