The White House AI accord signed by President Donald Trump and six technology executives on Tuesday contained a spelling error, with the president's signature appearing under "President of the Unites States" rather than "United States". The voluntary agreement commits the companies to safely developing artificial intelligence and establishing controls and audits to address growing public concerns about AI development.

The accord outlines four layers of "controls and audits", including robust internal controls and independent external auditors to ensure AI systems operate as intended. The signing comes amid significant public scepticism, with recent polling showing 61% of voters opposed to data centre construction and 71% of Americans believing the government is not doing enough to regulate AI development. The six executives who signed represent major AI companies: Dario Amodei (Anthropic), Elon Musk (SpaceAI), Greg Brockman (OpenAI), Jensen Huang (Nvidia), Mark Zuckerberg (Meta), and Sundar Pichai (Google). Trump has rejected formal regulations, instead praising the companies' self-policing efforts.
