NEC Director Kevin Hassett Responds After Top AI Executives Call For More AI Safety Guardrails
National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett stated on CNN that while AI executives have called for more safety guardrails, he does not expect market havoc. He cited a proposal from Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei for independent observers to monitor AI development, similar to bank supervisors. Hassett also noted the importance of preventing malevolent actors from developing AI that could be used for bioweapons.
The conversation highlights the White House's current thinking on AI regulation and safety, as well as the potential economic implications of advanced AI development.
The discussion also touched upon August inflation numbers, potential Federal Reserve interest rate decisions, and President Trump's views on trade deficits and interest rates.
