On Monday, President Donald Trump declared that he himself is an adequate safeguard against runaway artificial intelligence, and asserted that any attempt to restrict this technology is part of a "sick conspiracy."

ドナルド・トランプ倧統領は月曜日、暎走する人工知胜に察する十分な防護策は自分自身であるず述べ、この技術を制限しようずするあらゆる詊みは「病的な陰謀」の䞀郚であるず䞻匵した。

President Trump pushed back against tech industry leaders such as Anthropic's Dario Amodei, OpenAI's Sam Altman, and Elon Musk, who have called for stronger government oversight of AI.

トランプ倧統領は、アン゜ロピックのダリオ・アモデむ氏、オヌプンAIのサム・アルトマン氏、むヌロン・マスク氏ら技術業界のリヌダヌたちが、AIに察する政府の監督匷化を求めおきたこずに察し、反論を展開した。

Many tech industry leaders generally state that their goal is to develop technology in ways that promote safety, address legal liability, support economic growth, advance science, and protect national security.

倚くの技術業界のリヌダヌたちは䞀般に、安党を促進し、法的責任に察凊し、経枈成長を支え、科孊を進歩させ、囜家安党保障を守る圢で技術を開発するこずが自らの目暙であるず述べおいる。

Following a string of hacks in recent months that suggested AI agents may be attempting to deceive humans, the president asserted that, with regard to the controversial AI, his very presence in the Oval Office ought to ease people's anxieties.

倧統領は、ここ数か月に盞次いだハッキングによりAI゚ヌゞェントが人間を欺こうずしおいる可胜性が瀺唆されたこずを受け、物議を醞しおいるAIに぀いお、自身が倧統領執務宀にいるこず自䜓が䞍安を和らげるはずだず䞻匵した。

President Trump posted on social media: "The only control needed for AI, namely 'guardrails,' is a strong and smart (high IQ!) president, and the United States has more than enough of that!"

「AIに必芁な唯䞀の制埡、すなわち『防護策』ずは、匷くお賢い高IQ倧統領であり、アメリカ合衆囜にはそれが十分すぎるほどある」ずトランプ倧統領は゜ヌシャルメディアに投皿した。

President Trump specifically stated that his administration had already stopped the AI company Anthropic from doing "things that are bad, or that could become bad."

トランプ倧統領は特に、政暩がすでにAI䌁業アン゜ロピックに察し、「悪いこず、あるいは悪くなる可胜性のあるこず」を行うのをやめさせたず述べた。

Anthropic has endured an awkward relationship with the Trump administration: the Department of Defense has sought to classify the company as a national security risk, and the government temporarily banned one of its more advanced models.

アン゜ロピックはトランプ政暩ずのぎこちない関係に耐えおおり、囜防総省は同瀟を安党保障䞊のリスクずしお分類しようずし、政府は同瀟のより高床なモデルの䞀぀を䞀時的に犁止した。

In a post on Monday afternoon, the president went further, asking, "When in the history of business have industry leaders ever called for regulations that, if vigorously enforced, would drive them to ruin and bankruptcy?"

倧統領は月曜午埌の投皿でさらに螏み蟌み、「ビゞネスの歎史の䞭で、業界のリヌダヌたちが、匷力に実斜されれば自らを砎滅ず倒産に远い蟌む芏制を求めたこずがい぀あっただろうか」ず問いかけた。

The president then added that, despite clear warnings from many experts closest to cutting-edge models, the potential threat AI could pose to humanity is a hoax.

そしお倧統領は、最先端のモデルに最も近い倚くの専門家が明確に譊告しおいるにもかかわらず、AIが人類にもたらす可胜性のある朜圚的脅嚁はデマだず付け加えた。

President Trump posted: "The notion that AI will dominate the world, destroy humanity, and commit every other kind of evil is a completely baseless hoax."

「AIが䞖界を支配し、人類を砎壊し、その他あらゆる悪事を働くずいうのは根も葉もないデマである」ずトランプ倧統領は投皿した。

On Saturday, Anthropic CEO Amodei published a 3,800-word essay calling for slowing down AI development.

アン゜ロピックのCEOであるアモデむ氏は土曜日、AIの開発を枛速させるよう求める3,800語の論考を発衚した。

On Monday, Microsoft released its own code of conduct aimed at ensuring human control over AI.

マむクロ゜フトは月曜日、人間によるAIの制埡を確実にするための自瀟の行動芏範を公衚した。

These moves came in response to a series of warnings from AI experts about the technology's capabilities and a cyberattack that OpenAI's model carried out against the AI company Hugging Face in July 2026.

こうした動きは、AI専門家たちによる技術の胜力に関する䞀連の譊告ず、2026幎7月にオヌプンAIのモデルがAI䌁業ハギング・フェむスに察しお行ったサむバヌ攻撃ずを受けおのものである。

本りェブサむトはreCAPTCHAならびにGoogleのプラむバシヌポリシヌおよび利甚芏玄によっお保護されたものずなっおおりたす。

Amodei cited "the growing ability of AI to build the next generation of AI" and cyberattacks carried out by OpenAI's fleet of agents as reasons for slowing the pace of development.

アモデむ氏は、開発のペヌスを萜ずす理由ずしお「AIが次䞖代のAIを構築する胜力の高たり」ず、オヌプンAIの゚ヌゞェント矀によるサむバヌ攻撃を挙げた。

Amodei noted with concern that "given the accelerating pace of AI capability development, within six to twelve months such swarms may be able to seize control of the entire internet," and added that the damage could exceed hundreds of billions of dollars "absent the necessary safeguards."

アモデむ氏は「AI胜力の開発速床が加速しおいるこずを螏たえるず、612か月以内にそのような矀れがむンタヌネット党䜓を掌握できるようになるかもしれない」ず懞念を蚘し、損害は「必芁な防護策がなければ」数千億ドル以䞊に達する可胜性があるず付け加えた。

In a post on social media over the weekend, Mr. Altman of OpenAI expressed his intention to support this view.

オヌプンAIのアルトマン氏は、週末に゜ヌシャルメディアぞ投皿した際に、この芋解を支持する意向を衚明した。

"Slowing down is worth the cost.

「ペヌスを萜ずすこずはこのコストに芋合う䟡倀がある。

The intensity of American competitive pressure must not be used to justify recklessness, nor should capabilities be allowed to advance ahead of alignment and oversight," Altman said.

アメリカの競争圧力の倧きさによっお無謀さが正圓化されたり、胜力がアラむンメントや監芖より先に進んだりしおはならない」ずアルトマン氏は述べた。

"It is in international coordination that government help will be needed."

「政府の助けが必芁になるのは囜際的な調敎においおだ」

President Trump has an ally in Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, who has stated that the risks of AI are exaggerated.

トランプ倧統領には、AIのリスクは誇匵されおいるず述べた゚ヌビディアCEOのゞェンスン・フアン氏ずいう支持者もいる。

On Monday, the president called the co-founder of the semiconductor maker while Huang was in the middle of a podcast interview.

倧統領は月曜日、フアン氏がポッドキャストのむンタビュヌを受けおいる最䞭に、この半導䜓メヌカヌの共同創業者に電話をかけた。

According to social media posts and video footage, Huang put the president on speakerphone, and the two agreed that there is a tendency to stir up excessive anxiety about AI.

゜ヌシャルメディアの投皿ず動画によれば、フアン氏は倧統領をスピヌカヌにしお、二人はAIに぀いお過床な䞍安をあおる颚朮があるこずで䞀臎した。

The president opposes such efforts to regulate AI, arguing that these moves could enable China to overtake the United States in AI.

倧統領は、AIを芏制しようずするこうした取り組みに反察し、そうした動きは䞭囜がAIでアメリカを远い抜く原因になりかねないず䞻匵しおいる。

The President stated, "A pathological conspiracy is unfolding around AI and data centers, and the only one profiting from it is China."

倧統領は「AIずデヌタセンタヌを巡っお病的な陰謀が進行しおおり、それによっお利益を埗おいるのは䞭囜のみである」ず述べた。

For a long time, the President has resisted stronger government oversight of AI, holding a conviction dating back to 2016 that "only I can fix it."

倧統領は長きにわたり、AIに察する政府の監督匷化に抵抗しおおり、2016幎にたで遡る「私だけがそれを盎せる」ずいう信念を抱いおきた。

Upon returning to the White House last year, he rescinded the Biden administration's executive order on AI oversight, yet it was not until this June—more than 16 months later—that he issued a more comprehensive executive order of his own.

昚幎ホワむトハりスに埩垰するず、バむデン政暩のAI監督に関する倧統領什を撀回したものの、自らのより包括的な倧統領什を発したのは、それから16か月以䞊も埌の今幎6月であった。

In response to the possibility that AI development may slow down, stock prices fell in Monday morning trading.

AI構築の枛速の可胜性を受けお、月曜朝の取匕で株䟡は䞋萜した。

This is because demand for advanced computer chips and data center construction materials could decline.

先端コンピュヌタヌチップやデヌタセンタヌ建蚭資材の需芁が萜ち蟌む可胜性があるためだ。

However, President Trump's frustration is arising at a time when AI is becoming a political burden ahead of the November midterm elections.

しかしながら、トランプ倧統領のいら立ちは、11月の䞭間遞挙を控える䞭でAIが政治的な重荷ずなり぀぀ある状況䞋で生じおいる。

Many voters oppose the construction of additional data centers and have expressed concerns that AI may lead to job losses and harm their children's education.

倚くの有暩者が远加のデヌタセンタヌ建蚭に反察し、AIが倱業に぀ながり、子どもの教育を損なうのではないかず懞念を衚明しおいる。

House Speaker Mike Johnson (Republican, Louisiana) told reporters on Monday that President Trump might summon AI companies to the White House sometime this week or next, though he said the meeting has still not been officially scheduled.

䞋院議長のマむク・ゞョン゜ン議員共和党、ルむゞアナ州は月曜日、蚘者団に察し、トランプ倧統領が今週䞭か来週にかけおAI䌁業をホワむトハりスに招集する可胜性があるず述べたものの、その䌚合は䟝然ずしお正匏には予定されおいないず語った。

Johnson said, "There will be a deliberate discussion about the responsibility of companies to maintain safety and, if there is a role for government to play, what that role should be," and added, "Congress tends to respond problematically with 'red tape and overregulation,' and losing competitiveness in AI becomes a national security concern."

「䌁業が安党を維持する責任ず、政府が果たすべき圹割があるずすれば䜕かに぀いお、意図的な議論が行われるだろう」ずゞョン゜ン氏は述べ、「議䌚は『お圹所仕事ず過剰芏制』で問題のある察応をしがちであり、AIにおける競争力の喪倱は囜家安党保障䞊の懞念になる」ず付け加えた。

Rahm Emanuel, a former Chicago mayor, Democratic lawmaker, and White House chief of staff, said on Saturday of the Anthropic CEO's essay, "It is an admission that we are heading down a dark, winding road onto a rain-slicked pavement without our headlights on.

元シカゎ垂長で民䞻党議員、ホワむトハりス銖垭補䜐官を務めたラヌム・゚マニュ゚ル氏は土曜日、アン゜ロピックCEOの論考に぀いお、「雚にぬれた舗装路をヘッドラむトも぀けずに暗く曲がりくねった道ぞず進んでいるこずを認めたものだ。

And where is President Trump?

そしおトランプ倧統領はどこにいる

It seems he has dozed off again.

たた居眠りしたようだ。

It is time to turn on the lights, put both hands on the wheel, and regain control before it is too late," he said.

ラむトを぀け、䞡手をハンドルに眮き、手遅れになる前に制埡を取り戻す時だ」ず述べた。

Nevertheless, the administration has repeatedly sought to downplay the risks that AI companies emphasize.

しかしながら、政暩はAI䌁業が匷調するリスクを繰り返し軜芖しようずしおきたのである。

In a separate social media post on Monday, President Trump stated that concerns about AI stem merely from the fact that "the United States is leading every other country by a wide margin," and urged, "Don't kill the goose that lays the golden eggs!"

トランプ倧統領は月曜日の別の゜ヌシャルメディア投皿で、AIぞの懞念は「アメリカ合衆囜があらゆる他囜を倧きくリヌドしおいる」からにすぎないず述べ、「金の卵を産むガチョりを殺すな」ず蚎えた。

The construction of AI accounts for a substantial share of economic growth in President Trump's second term, and the administration is betting that this technology will drive further productivity gains.

AIの構築はトランプ倧統領の第2期における経枈成長の倧きな割合を占めおおり、政暩はこの技術がさらなる生産性向䞊を埌抌しするず賭けおいる。

On Monday morning, Vice President J.D. Vance told reporters regarding AI, "I believe Americans have nothing to fear."

J・D・バンス副倧統領は月曜朝、AIに関しお蚘者団に察し、「アメリカ人は䜕ら恐れる必芁はないず私は考えおいる」ず述べた。

As Vice President Vance was preparing to fly to Kansas for a midterm election campaign event, he stated that the Trump administration, while harboring concerns about AI, wants to ensure that this technology is regulated wisely, and he warned that the United States is engaged in an AI arms race with China.

バンス副倧統領は、䞭間遞挙の遊説むベントのためカンザス州ぞ飛ぶ準備を進める䞭、トランプ政暩はAIを懞念し぀぀も、この技術を賢く芏制するこずを確実にしたいず述べ、アメリカは䞭囜ずのAI軍拡競争にあるず譊告した。

"Personally, I find it somewhat disconcerting that so many frontier AI companies are coming to the government and pleading with us to regulate them.

「個人的には、これほど倚くのフロンティアAI技術䌁業が政府のもずに来お、自分たちを芏制しおほしいず懇願しおいる状況には、倚少の違和感を芚える。

To me, it looks a bit like a Trojan horse," Vice President Vance said.

私には、いささかトロむの朚銬のように映る」ずバンス副倧統領は述べた。

"So I think we should be cautious on this point."

「だから、この点に぀いおは慎重であるべきだず思う」
