Anthropic and DeepMind CEOs Push for US-Led AI Rules at G7
Dario Amodei and Demis Hassabis pitched a US-led coalition to set global AI standards behind closed doors at the G7 summit.
The heads of two of the world's most influential AI labs want America calling the shots on global AI governance.
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and Google DeepMind chief Demis Hassabis made the case for a U.S.-led coalition to establish AI rules and standards during a closed-door session at the G7 summit on Wednesday, according to sources familiar with the meeting.
The push essentially positions the U.S. as the anchor for international AI regulation — a move that would give Washington outsized influence over how the technology gets developed and deployed worldwide.
That two competing AI leaders are aligned on this point is notable. Both run organizations racing to build increasingly powerful AI systems, and both apparently agree that a coordinated, American-led framework beats a regulatory free-for-all.
Details on specific proposals or reactions from G7 leaders remain unclear.
