There's a growing chorus to slow down the growth of artificial intellligence.

It's a warning sign. It's a warning sign that we need to slow down. A growing chorus now to slow down the growth of artificial intelligence. The CEO of Anthropic posting an open letter over the weekend saying it's time to take the foot off the gas, a sentiment that was quickly echoed by other AI leaders, including Elon Musk. And John Hopper stayed in the newsroom with more, and John, the president not on board with this idea. No, Bill. He believes the U.S. is in a race with China on the AI front, saying just this morning that the only guardrails that AI needs is a strong and smart president, and that the USA has that. Now, this is despite pushback from industry leaders, as you heard, and whistleblowers in the industry speaking out, warning that AI could soon be superhuman in its systems and capable of wiping out humanity by 2030. But it doesn't appear to be changing the president's mind earlier this morning. He was asked specifically about what these experts are warning. You've heard directly from any of these AI tech leaders, and you seem to downplay some of the concerns that we've heard. No, I'm not downplaying, but it's gonna be more good than bad, but by a lot. And I've said it from the beginning. Whoever wins AI, and we're leading by a lot. Whoever wins AI wins. After that, he then followed up on social media and doubled down saying, quote, we already have tremendous criminal and regulatory power over these companies. There is a sick conspiracy going on against AI and data centers, and the only one that is happy about it is China. Whoever wins AI wins. We are leading China and all others, and we'll continue to do so. Conspiracy theorists, treasonous traders, and leakers, beware. So that appears to be a threat against some of these whistleblowers. There's also been pressure on Congress to address this issue, but there seems to be no urgency to try and regulate AI right now. I'm Speaker Mike Johnson, deferring to the president and also suggesting that they let the industry self-regulate, guys.
