Trump and tech CEOs sign an AI code of conduct that's only "morally binding"

Several tech executives joined Trump at the White House to sign an AI code of conduct that, according to Politico, is only morally binding with no legal force. The code requires independent third-party auditors to verify AI models work as intended, plus independent boards overseeing internal safety reviews; signatories include Meta's Zuckerberg, OpenAI's Greg Brockman, NVIDIA's Jensen Huang, and Musk. Critics say a code without actual legislation amounts to little, and similar voluntary pledges have precedents.
