According to Jin10, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg opposed a plan to create a national artificial intelligence regulator during a call with U.S. President Donald Trump last month. According to Jin10, people familiar with the matter said Trump called Zuckerberg proactively during the week of August 17, and the two discussed a White House proposal for a FINRA-style AI regulator. According to Jin10, the proposal was put forward by Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis and would create an independent body similar to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority to review advanced AI models and test their risks. According to Jin10, Zuckerberg said the body should reflect the Trump administration's relatively loose approach to AI regulation, but he did not ask Trump to change his position. According to Jin10, the White House said the Trump administration wants to balance promoting AI innovation with ensuring safety, and the plan remains under consideration while the White House also evaluates another industry-led self-regulatory model. According to Jin10, Zuckerberg previously said overly strict regulation could slow the release of AI models and affect the United States' competitiveness in AI.
