Donald Trump, the former President of the United States, has introduced himself as the 'Fraud Fighter' and has strongly dismissed concerns about artificial intelligence. He attributed these concerns to the activities of the radical left and described them as similar to past claims about global warming.
Trump's Comments on Artificial Intelligence
In his post on the social media platform Truth Social, Trump wrote: 'The artificial intelligence fraud being promoted by radical Democrats is reminiscent of the global warming fraud, where it was claimed that everyone would die from extreme heat.' Referring to the concerns raised about the potential dangers of artificial intelligence, he said: 'I am the fraud fighter and I am currently breaking another fraud — that artificial intelligence is going to take over the world and destroy us.'

Researchers' Concerns and Proposals
These claims come as some researchers and executives from the largest companies active in artificial intelligence, such as Ivan Hobbinger from Anthropic, have issued serious warnings about the dangers posed by the rapid advancements of this technology. Hobbinger recently stated that the likelihood of humanity's destruction due to artificial intelligence in the next decade is over 10 percent.
Trump also referred to those who express concerns about artificial intelligence as 'revolutionaries for a bad and evil cause' and suggested that they act against the interests of the United States. In contrast, prominent figures like Elon Musk and Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, have emphasized the need to slow down the development of artificial intelligence to prevent potential dangers.
Dario Amodei, one of the co-founders of Anthropic, expressed concern in a recently published article that advancements in artificial intelligence are occurring much faster than expected. He pointed out that if the pace of artificial intelligence development continues in this manner, this technology could potentially dominate the internet within six months to a year.
Amodei also proposed a three-phase plan to slow down the progress of artificial intelligence and allow regulatory adjustments to align with this technology. This proposal includes granting third-party evaluators access to the systems of artificial intelligence companies to verify safety practices and report incidents.
These heated discussions among technology activists come as the dangers posed by artificial intelligence have become one of the main and controversial topics in society. With the continued advancement of technology, the need for oversight and more thorough assessments in this area is increasingly felt.
