🇺🇸⚡️ — Senate Majority Leader John Thune told Axios that he believes President Trump is not "really dug in" against AI safety measures despite publicly dismissing concerns about AI as a “hoax.”

Thune is working with Democratic Senator Amy Klobuchar on bipartisan legislation requiring AI companies to identify, report and address serious risks posed by advanced AI systems.

Negotiations remain ongoing, with Democrats seeking mandatory testing before deployment and stronger federal regulatory powers.
