U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance said Monday that recent calls from several artificial intelligence executives to slow AI development struck him as "somewhat strange," adding that the message could be a "Trojan horse." He also said it was unusual to see AI companies asking the government to regulate them.
Vance said all technologies carry risks, but the United States still needs to stay ahead in AI while managing those risks. He tied that priority to competition with China, saying the U.S. should not fall behind in the race for artificial intelligence leadership.
His remarks align with comments made recently by Donald Trump, who said the U.S. must remain in front in the AI race and that AI safety should focus on making sure the country does not lose ground to China. In recent weeks, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei publicly called for the industry to slow work on frontier AI, while OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and others also raised concerns about related risks.

Vance said it was unusual for AI companies to ask the government to regulate them. He added that every technology comes with risks, but the United States needs to manage those risks while keeping its lead in AI, especially in competition with China.
His comments match the position Donald Trump expressed earlier. Trump said recently that the U.S. must stay ahead in the AI race, and that AI safety should center on making sure the country does not fall behind China.
