Trump says he'll discuss AI with Xi but wants to 'leave it exactly where it is'

​US President Donald Trump ‌said artificial ​intelligence will be a "big topic of discussion" when he ‌meets with Chinese President Xi Jinping on Thursday, but said both leaders wanted to leave ‌things as they are.

"A big day with President ‌Xi of China. Super Intelligence (SI) will be a big topic of discussion, but I want ⁠to ​leave it exactly ⁠where it is," Trump wrote in a social ⁠media post, using his preferred term for artificial intelligence. "That ​is China’s position also. Our guardrail is ⁠the DOJ!" Trump said, referring to the Department ⁠of ​Justice.

Trump said last week that the United States already has guardrails in place ⁠to regulate and prosecute AI companies, appearing to play ⁠down ⁠concerns expressed by industry leaders about misuse of artificial intelligence harming people.
