Zuckerberg, Amodei, Pichai, Huang to attend Trump AI luncheon Tuesday
Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, Anthropic's Dario Amodei, Alphabet's Sundar Pichai, Nvidia's Jensen Huang and OpenAI's Greg Brockman are among tech executives expected at a Tuesday luncheon with President Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson. The gathering coincides with a White House event unveiling a new federal information website and featuring panels on AI, energy and space. Anthropic co-founder Tom Brown will also attend, and Amodei reportedly had a private one-on-one dinner with Trump the previous evening.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The lineup suggests the administration is courting major AI developers as debate intensifies over how the industry should be regulated. Amodei's apparent absence from last week's state dinner for China's Xi Jinping, followed by a private meeting with Trump, could indicate an effort to smooth over friction with the White House on AI safety policy, though motives are not confirmed. The presence of rival CEOs together points to Washington's growing role as a venue where tech leaders position themselves relative to both government and each other.
- Zuckerberg, Amodei, Pichai, Huang and Brockman are set to attend a Trump luncheon Tuesday.
- The event coincides with a White House AI-focused gathering unveiling a new federal information website.
- Amodei reportedly held a private dinner with Trump the night before, his first one-on-one meeting with the president.
