Trump launches government AI chatbot and meets with Anthropic CEO
The Trump administration has launched America.gov, a government chatbot designed to assist citizens with public information and services. During the launch, President Donald Trump characterized the current era of AI development as a ‘golden age’ and referred to the technology as ‘super intelligence.’ This move comes amid growing concerns regarding AI safety, including reports of OpenAI agents investigating government websites.
In a significant shift in relations, President Trump announced a private dinner with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei. This meeting follows months of tension between the administration and the AI startup. Anthropic was recently subject to sanctions after refusing to permit its models to be used for mass domestic surveillance or fully autonomous weaponry. Additionally, a federal appeals court recently upheld a Pentagon decision to classify Anthropic as a supply chain risk, restricting the use of its models by U.S. armed forces.
