Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis call for a U.S.-led coalition to coordinate global governance of artificial intelligence at the G7, according to multiple reports. The CEOs raise the idea during a closed-door lunch with G7 leaders that includes U.S. President Donald Trump and other heads of state, with the discussions focused on shaping international AI rules and standards.
CNBC reports that the meeting centers on developing AI standards at the G7 Summit and includes participation from the tech leaders as well as government officials. Quartz similarly reports that Amodei and Hassabis urge coordinated global AI governance through a U.S.-led coalition. The Next Web adds that Canadian officials are supportive, citing that Canada says yes to the proposal.
Across the accounts, the key point is the CEOs’ argument for coordinated international approaches to AI governance, with the United States positioned as a lead actor, and the discussions framed around common standards among G7 countries.
