World leaders and AI labs have warned that AI could pose a danger to humanity if not developed safely.
How did Trump respond to calls for global AI regulation at the UN?
Outgoing UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres used his final speech as leader of the UN. To warn the Assembly that global power is being reshaped in fundamental ways.
We are witnessing an extraordinary transfer of power away from governments to a handful of private corporations and individuals. Their reach now extends across politics, economies, information flows, technological development, and the civic space on which societies depend.

Marco Rubio is handling a negotiation. He's deep into negotiations with Cuba. Let's see what happens. Will not allow a haven for foreign adversaries to threaten America. On our own doorstep.
