President Donald Trump and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei met for dinner as their opposing views on AI safety increasingly shape the debate over how quickly the technology should advance. Amodei has called for “pacing” development of the most advanced models and stronger guardrails, while President Trump has pushed back against slowing AI development as the US races to stay ahead of China. Bloomberg’s Mike Shepard discusses what’s known about the meeting with Ed Ludlow on "Bloomberg Tech."
