We now have the full details of the "morally binding" AI safety deal announced by President Trump yesterday, in which top executives agreed to self-regulate their artificial intelligence technology. The accord, officially titled the Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities, was shared online by tech founder and presidential adviser David Sacks, and has been signed by Google's Sundar Pichai, Anthropic's Dario Amodei, Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, OpenAI's Greg Brockman, XAI's Elon Musk, and Nvidia's Jensen Huang

Trump introduced the deal yesterday at the same time as ordering the US government to refer to AI as 'Super Intelligence' going forward, reasoning that the word "artificial" sounds bad and "super is the best word of all." Alongside the tech oligarchs, Trump added his own signature to the AI safety agreement, with his title listed as "President of the Unites States."
