Trump wants AI companies to police themselves

• President Trump expressed a desire for 'tremendous self-regulation' in AI, opposing government intervention to stifle tech growth.
• CEOs from Meta, Nvidia, Palantir, Google, Anthropic, Tesla (Elon Musk), and Nvidia (Jensen Huang) were in attendance at the White House meeting.
• A Senate vote is scheduled for Wednesday on the 'Ratepayer Protection Act,' a bill aimed at pushing local utilities to consider data centers in rate-making, but it faces strong opposition and is unlikely to pass.

President Trump met with top tech CEOs, including those from Nvidia, Meta, Palantir, and Google, to discuss AI. He advocated for 'tremendous self-regulation' and 'unfettered' growth for AI, emphasizing a hands-off approach from the government. Separately, a Senate bill concerning AI data centers and local electricity bills faces an uphill battle for passage.
