Trump Signs White House 'Superintelligence Protocol' With Six Tech Giants on SI Safety Self-Regulation
On Sept 29, President Trump hosted leaders of Google, Anthropic, Meta, OpenAI, xAI and Nvidia at the White House and jointly signed the "White House Superintelligence Protocol: Joint Frontier Responsibility Commitment," a voluntary pledge calling for four layers of controls: full-pipeline monitoring of model capabilities and safety alignment, dedicated implementation teams, independent third-party evaluations, and board-level oversight committees. Trump described it as morally rather than legally binding — "a constitution for AI" — and said he dislikes the word "artificial," proposing "superintelligence" instead, alongside plans for a roughly 10-person White House SI committee. (Note: superintelligence generally refers to SI surpassing human intelligence, a different concept from today's general SI.) The move comes amid rising public concern: a Sept 17–20 Reuters/Ipsos poll found about 73% of respondents worried SI companies' safety measures are insufficient. Critics note the pact carries no penalties and leaves key details blank.
