13.09.2026The Day Trump Dismissed the AI Slowdown

Carrying over Amodei's slowdown call from the previous evening, editors opened on AI safety, with Altman delaying OpenAI's IPO and Obama echoing alarm.

Attention shifted midday to the Gulf after an Iranian cargo ship was struck near the Strait of Hormuz, killing one, alongside reports that hard-liners had sabotaged a U.S. peace deal. Trump told Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman the confrontation would 'work out fine,' said Tehran was 'calling constantly' with a timeline for ending the war, and floated staying to 'keep the oil.'

By afternoon the focus returned to AI as Trump brushed off doom predictions as 'things that won't happen,' insisting the U.S. must beat China, while Speaker Johnson called for meetings with AI leaders but resisted a moratorium and Congress scrambled on rules. Late coverage added Trump's demand that Ukraine halt strikes on Russian diesel facilities, which he blamed for high gas prices.
