The White House convened top technology leaders, including Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and Anthropic chief executive Dario Amodei, to sign a major artificial intelligence safety pledge. President Donald Trump described the agreement as morally binding and signed an executive order officially referring to artificial intelligence as super intelligence. The development comes as leading tech companies like Meta and OpenAI adapt their consumer-facing artificial intelligence products, even while broader consumer adoption remains limited to a small fraction of users and enterprise deployments continue driving the sector's main revenue.
