Vance Questions AI Giants' Call for Slowdown: Beware, This Could Be a 'Trojan Horse'

Beating AI News Flash: U.S. Vice President Vance said on Monday that he finds it "a bit strange" that several AI company executives have suddenly called for slowing down artificial intelligence development recently, and believes the related calls may be a "Trojan horse."

Vance said that the practice of AI companies "asking the government to regulate themselves" strikes him as unusual. He stated that any technology carries risks, but the United States needs to maintain its leading position in the AI field while controlling risks, especially in the artificial intelligence competition with China.

Vance's remarks are consistent with Trump's previous position. Trump recently stated that the United States must maintain its lead in the AI race and focus AI safety on ensuring that the United States does not fall behind China. Recently, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei publicly called for the industry to slow down frontier AI development, and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and others have also expressed concerns about related risks.
