US President Donald Trump rejects warnings that artificial intelligence could pose extreme risks, including claims that it could wipe out humanity. Multiple outlets report that he dismisses such concerns as “hoaxes” and frames them as exaggerated or false. In posts shared on his Truth Social account, Trump also portrays scenarios of AI taking over and robots entering cities as implausible.
Outlets describe Trump’s remarks as part of a broader pushback against calls for regulating or adding “guardrails” to AI. The Next Web and Yahoo News characterise his stance as escalating his criticism of AI safety warnings. Times of India similarly reports that Trump calls AI doomsday-style claims a hoax, while foregrounding his view that competition in AI matters.
Coverage also notes the context of Trump’s recent public comments and his questioning of why AI leaders support regulation. Across the reports, the common thread is that Trump rejects AI danger warnings and opposes efforts to slow or constrain the technology, while other observers and policymakers continue to call for safety measures.
