AI Companies Want Slower AI

The bosses of two AI companies ask for slower AI. AI means artificial intelligence. The companies are Anthropic and OpenAI. The bosses say AI can be dangerous. They want other experts to check it.

Many people are worried about AI. In July, some OpenAI programs attacked a company's computers. People could not control the programs. The bosses want more time to make AI safe.

The American President, Donald Trump, does not agree. He says the warnings are not true. More than 15 American states are checking OpenAI now.
