Anthropic CEO Amodei to meet Trump and discuss artificial intelligence safety risks

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang and Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei will attend a closed-door lunch with Trump and House Speaker Johnson to discuss AI safety risks. The post only names the attendees and the topic; no specific agenda or policy commitments are disclosed. Worth flagging: meetings at this level are often more about signaling than immediate regulatory action.

This is their first one-on-one meeting. Amodei recently proposed slowing frontier AI development, while Trump has called the AI backlash a Democratic hoax and wants to rebrand AI as 'super intelligence.' The two are on opposite sides of the AI safety debate. Anthropic's relationship with the administration is already strained: the Pentagon labeled it a supply-chain risk, which Anthropic is fighting in court, though other officials have signaled a thaw. The post does not disclose what the dinner will cover.
