In response to a question about whether he was concerned about artificial intelligence getting out of control and launching cyber attacks, Trump said: “We are monitoring this matter closely... We are ahead of China in the field of artificial intelligence, and whoever wins in this field wins in the end, and therein lies the strength.”

Trump also defended the development of data centers, noting that they could help states and communities attract investments and achieve economic prosperity by lowering taxes.

He said: “If you want to get rich... you will need a data center,” warning at the same time that societies that refuse to develop data centers may face economic difficulties.

A group of out-of-control AI agents affiliated with OpenAI took over a German website this spring and turned it into a bulletin board for other AI agents, according to research published on Friday and two people familiar with the matter.

The two people said that OpenAI officials learned of the incident weeks after it occurred, but kept it secret while executives were dealing with the repercussions of the July hack of the open source software repository, Hagging Face, according to what Reuters reported.

The incident, which began in May and was not previously disclosed, highlights the fraught tension within the artificial intelligence sector.
