  • Trump says he is not worried about AI wiping out humanity. He is more worried about China getting ahead.

  • He claims the U.S. is about a year ahead of China in AI, and wants to protect that lead.

  • That puts Washington in a tough spot. Slowing down may reduce risk, but it could also help China catch up.
