Trump Claims His IQ Alone Is Enough To Safely Control AI

President Donald Trump has declared that nothing else is required to keep artificial intelligence safe but his own leadership. He made the assertion on social media this week, pointing to what he calls a "high IQ" as the sole necessary control or guardrail for the technology. The United States possesses such a president in spades, according to his post.

This bold claim arrives while worry grows over how quickly AI is spreading. Recent warnings suggest the tech could endanger society or even threaten human life, a point recently raised by a lead researcher at Anthropic on social media platforms.

Trump countered these fears by alleging a sick conspiracy against AI data centers. He stated that China is the only nation truly happy about this situation. This line of reasoning fits into a wider argument from his administration that Beijing stands to gain if America slows down the rollout of artificial intelligence. Some researchers have suggested that protests targeting data centers may actually be encouraged by Chinese officials.

Whoever wins the race with AI wins everything, Trump continued in his remarks. He insisted the United States is leading China and every other nation while maintaining that lead. Conspiracy theorists, treasonists, traitors, and leakers should beware, he warned. The Daily Mail's Jon Michael Raasch contributed to this report.
