The accord sets internal controls, independent external audits and board oversight as companies face rising pressure over AI safety.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump hosted top artificial intelligence executives at the White House to sign a voluntary accord including internal and external safety reviews of the technology.
- Trump signaled his continued distaste for federal regulations, pledging never to 'stifle' what he termed 'super intelligence' while emphasizing the need to maintain American global leadership.

- Executives agreed to address bipartisan opposition to data center construction by providing financial support to local schools, Trump said, noting these facilities will become 'very popular.'
- While leaders like Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman have urged caution, Congress is unlikely to pass AI legislation soon, leaving safety measures to industry self-policing.
