The Donald Trump administration is unresponsive to the threats posed by artificial intelligence, considering it 'a trick.' In an unexpected call with Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, the President of the United States stated, 'Robots will not dominate us... it's all a trick.' These remarks come as many lawmakers believe it is time to implement security measures for artificial intelligence.

In this call, instead of worrying about the dangers of artificial intelligence, Trump emphasized the necessity of winning in the global competitions in this field. He described this competition as a war for economic and technological superiority, believing that countries that advance in this area will reap greater economic benefits.

Different Approach of Lawmakers
While Trump is downplaying concerns about artificial intelligence, many lawmakers in Congress want to pass stricter measures to manage and control new AI technologies. They believe that specific laws and frameworks should be established for the use of these technologies to prevent potential abuses. This disagreement between the administration and lawmakers could lead to new challenges in the future.
In this regard, experts believe that ignoring the threats posed by artificial intelligence could have serious consequences for society and the economy of the United States. They warn that the lack of adequate laws and oversight could lead to problems related to privacy, cybersecurity, and even employment.
Analysts also point out that while Trump is trying to alleviate concerns about artificial intelligence, the United States' global competitors are advancing in this field. China and other countries are rapidly developing AI technologies, which could lead to significant changes in the global balance of power.
It seems that Trump's statements in this regard are also part of his electoral strategy. He is seeking to garner voter support by emphasizing the economic and security benefits of technological advancements. At the same time, this approach may face severe criticism from opponents and some members of the Republican Party.
