In an interview with Fox Business, US presidential candidate Donald Trump expressed concern about the potential dangers posed by artificial intelligence (AI) and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs).
Trump believes AI-powered technologies already pose a serious threat and called them "dangerous and frightening". He believes that #AI can be used to manipulate and influence a wide range of social, economic and military issues, citing an instance where someone impersonated him and gave a speech endorsing a product he had previously disapproved of.
This, Trump says, highlights the potential for AI to escalate conflicts and create unintended consequences.
Trump emphasises the need to address this issue as soon as possible, as he considers artificial intelligence to be one of the most dangerous technologies in existence today. He notes that the lack of knowledge on how to effectively deal with this threat adds to the concern.
In addition to concerns about artificial intelligence, Trump has also criticised the concept of #CBDC, expressing his belief that it poses a danger to the country. He has publicly stated his intention to ban the creation of a central bank digital currency if he wins the election.
It is worth noting that the Polymarket platform estimated the probability of electing Trump as the next US President at 55%, while the incumbent head of state has a 38% chance of winning, according to users of the sweepstakes.
By the way, the value of TRUMP #memcoins in Donald Trump's wallet recently jumped to $1 million, indicating a growing interest in this digital asset.
