Story summary

President Trump is expected to name Jay Clayton, the Director of National Intelligence, as the White House's artificial intelligence (AI) czar. This decision follows concerns raised by AI company employees about potential risks posed by advanced technology. Clayton already oversees 18 US intelligence agencies and would retain this role while taking on the new responsibility. The announcement could come as early as Friday via social media. Critics argue that Clayton’s dual roles may create conflicts of interest, given his existing responsibilities in national security.

🔮 On Friday morning, President Donald Trump, who has claimed Pelota has committed "election fraud," said Alaskans would need to have a "190 IQ" to understand the ballot with two Dan Sullivans, despite the ballot's clear distinctions between the two candidates' names and other distinctive marks like party affiliation and incumbency.

🔮 The president's son held his May wedding at an exclusive island in the Bahamas, with the oligarch -- Umar Kremlev -- footing a large portion of the bill for the events later that weekend, according to records reviewed by ProPublica as well as three people familiar with the event who spoke with the outlet.
🔮 Sam Altman, the chief executive of OpenAI, joined others in the artificial intelligence industry in saying that his company would welcome a slower development pace for AI to ensure that the technology's capabilities don't "get ahead of alignment and monitoring," as President Donald Trump said there would be "more good than bad" from the technology.
🔮 The motion also points to the demolition of the White House East Wing, which happened without notice and before courts could weigh in.
🔮 “If the action taken in this proclamation does not result in a lower sale price of imported ground beef, I may end the action taken in this proclamation in order to, among other things, prevent a windfall to foreign producers,” he wrote in the proclamation.
