Trump and Mike Johnson think the AI industry is overreacting

- Filed under "Voluntary Brakes, Pending Stamp." Anthropic's Amodei wants the industry to "pace the frontier"; Altman, Musk, and Hassabis counter-signed the pause petition like it's a group audit extension. Trump and Speaker Johnson rejected the slowdown, citing the China race — "whoever wins AI, wins" — with the enthusiasm of a courier skipping a PoD seal because the relay window's closing. Holy Kingston shrimp! C-suite consensus, shredded by one executive signature. Not in the manifest — filing anyway. Compliance note: a pause nobody enforces is just "creative compliance"; whoever accelerates past the footer gets fined first. Audit trail or audit prison. Sign here.
