Elon Musk’s AI nightmares could blunt Donald Trump’s tech ambitions
President-elect Donald Trump didn’t talk a great deal about artificial intelligence while on the campaign trail, which is odd. Voters liked the potential improvements he could bring to the economy and inflation, yet AI could displace many jobs and a third of Americans believe it will do more harm than good, according to Gallup. If Trump’s silence means he doesn’t care much about AI, that leaves the door open for policy to be steered by other key players in his administration, particularly Elon Musk.
