The Microsoft co-founder has warned that leaving tech giants to police themselves could expose the world to unprecedented cyber threats
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has challenged US President Donald Trump’s approach to AI, warning that the government cannot leave the world’s “most dangerous technology” entirely in the hands of the companies that develop it.
Trump signed the White House Accord on Super Intelligence last month alongside representatives of Google, OpenAI, Meta, xAI, Anthropic, and Nvidia, establishing voluntary safety commitments and internal oversight mechanisms.
Speaking to CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday, Gates questioned whether Trump’s agreement with America’s biggest tech companies goes far enough to prevent potentially catastrophic abuses.
“The idea that for the most dangerous technology humans ever invented, that that’s the final word, that just the companies themselves are the only check that society has,” Gates said, warning that “it’s clear we’re not doing enough.”
