President Donald Trump acknowledged the risks artificial intelligence posed to the banking system and said there should be government safeguards, but also ‌believed the technology could make ​the banking system better and safer, according to an interview broadcast on ⁠Wednesday.

Asked if AI could undermine ​confidence in the banking system, Trump told Fox ⁠Business Network: "Yeah, probably. But it could also be the kind of technology that allows greatness ‌in the banking system, makes it ​better and safer ‌and more secure."

On whether government should have ‌some safeguards on AI technology - a "kill switch," - Trump said, "There should be."

Trump's interview with "Mornings ⁠with Maria" was ‌taped on Tuesday.

The ⁠president's comments came after cybersecurity experts warned this ⁠week ⁠that Anthropic's new AI model, Mythos, could supercharge complex ‌cyberattacks and poses significant challenges to the banking industry with its legacy technology systems.

Anthropic declined ‌to ​comment on their ‌warnings. It has said Claude Mythos Preview will not be made ​generally available.
