US President Donald Trump has dismissed growing warnings that artificial intelligence could pose an existential threat to humanity. His comments came as Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and other AI leaders raised concerns about the rapid development of increasingly powerful systems. Trump said his priority was ensuring the United States remains ahead of China in AI, arguing that falling behind could put America in a difficult position. Meanwhile, researchers have warned that self-improving AI could become difficult to control and potentially cause catastrophic harm. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Elon Musk have also weighed in on the growing debate over AI safety. (PC: AP)
