  Speaker 1: Meanwhile, the war with Iran has expanded with the Iranian-backed
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Houthis having captured a vital port city along Yemen's Red Sea,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: home to one of the world's most vital shipping lanes.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Alex Hogan is traveling with the president and has more
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: from Dublin.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: Alex. Hi, Cheryl.
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: President Trump is here in Ireland for the weekend. This
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: is a trip that is a mixture of diplomacy and golf.
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: The president is currently spending the day at his own property,
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: the Doonbeg Resort for the Irish Open. Yesterday, he was
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: here in Dublin meeting with Irish officials talking trade and
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: economic ties between the two countries. And during some of
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: those meetings, there were also conversations around artificial intelligence amid
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: the growing regulations. This weekend, Trump took questions on AI today,
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: saying this. Well, I say this. Look, we're leading China
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: in AI.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: We're the most sophisticated.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: Country in the world. And frankly, I want to keep
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: it that way, because whoever wins, AI wins. And we
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: can put guardrails. We can do this and that. But
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: I think you have a lot of negative forces that
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: are bringing it up that shouldn't be bringing it up.
• 1:10
  Speaker 3: And they're bringing it up. It comes amid a growing
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: conversation over the dangers of AI. CEO of Anthropic, Dario Maude,
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: says that there needs to be a more deliberate approach
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: in building powerful AI systems. And he argues that pushing
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: ahead as fast as possible carries risks that governments, companies,
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: and society may not be prepared to manage. OpenAI CEO
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Sam Altman and Elon Musk, who runs XAI, publicly agreeing
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: with that sentiment. But some critics argue that this is
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: fear-mongering or a tactic to slow down competition. David Sachs,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: a White House advisor on AI, firing back at the
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: tech giants, telling them to stop pretending that they need
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: anyone else's permission to slow down. Writing, quote, most of all,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: stop pretending the motivation to slow down is purely altruistic.
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: You face massive product liability exposure if your products enable
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: a truly damaging cyber attack. Now, back here in Dublin,
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: in other foreign policy focal points, President Trump says he
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: believes that the trade war between the U.S. and Canada
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: will soon come to an end. And he said that
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: progress is being made on Iran. That comes amid new
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: escalation in the Middle East. Maritime trackers receiving reports today
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: of an attack on a ship in the Strait of Hormuz.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: President Trump told reporters today that he said that there
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: could be a deal that is close. Again, that comes
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: despite the new escalation that we are watching today. unfold
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: in the Middle East today. President Trump is expected to
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: stay at that Doonberg resort until later today when he
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: will travel back to Washington, D.C.
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: Cheryl. All right.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Alex Hogan traveling with the president in Ireland. Thank you.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: And now for more on the war with Iran, we
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: welcome in the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Arkansas
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: Congressman Rick Crawford. Congressman, it's great to see you. And,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: you know, Mr. Chairman, Iran's president is vowing that they, quote,
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: will not surrender. But then the regime signed a joint
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: statement with Russia and China, which urges a halt to
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: the escalation. Do you take this attempt at diplomacy at
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: face value?
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: I don't take anything the IRGC says at face value,
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: and I don't think anybody should. I think they are
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: duplicitous on a good day. And so take it for
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: what it's worth. They're engaging with Russia and China. At
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: the same time, they're making statements to us that really
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: don't comport. So I think it's very difficult to deal
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: with them diplomatically.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, certainly. And, you know, the president, we heard from
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: him in the last hour from Ireland. And, you know,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: the president has said that he's optimistic about wrapping up
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: the war. And he also said he may not have
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: them done before the midterms. And we continue to see
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: attempted attacks on our U.S. installations, our allies in the
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: region and energy infrastructure in that region. And, you know,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: we saw Brent go above one hundred dollars this week.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Do you think that the conflict is going to be
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: over by the midterms? The president was asked about that
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: in Ireland just in the last hour. Your thoughts?
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: Well, we're eight weeks out. I'm not seeing any signs
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: of them slowing down. In fact, I would point to
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: the fact that they have essentially opened up a second
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: front by now engaging with the Houthis, not just materially
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: or financially, but now physically placing IRGC on the ground,
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: which would imply to me that there is some command
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: and control there. This is a whole new dynamic in
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: this engagement. So this may be an effort for them
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: to sort of create a different front, split our attention,
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: divert our attention away from their continued development of ballistic
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: missiles and what that means in terms of their development
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: of nuclear, because they're developing ballistic missiles so that they
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: can develop their nuclear capability. That provides the necessary protection
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: for them. And so I do have some concerns about that.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: I think the dynamics have changed a little bit. I
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: don't think it's unmanageable by any stretch of the imagination,
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: but I do think it's interesting that they're taking a
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: little bit of a different strategic tack.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Have you had any conversations regarding our relationships with our
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: allies in the region?
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: I haven't engaged with them directly, haven't been briefed. I
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: am confident that the administration has. And, you know, think about,
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: of course, the UAE primarily and Saudi Arabia that are
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: probably positioned geographically more efficiently and effectively to deal with
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: the threat that the Houthis present. But there are other
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: allies in the region as well that should be joining
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: the fight, as it were. I'm sure that the administration
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: is talking with our Gulf state allies.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: All right. Well, with your work on intelligence, it's very
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: important we get your perspective this morning, Mr.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: Chairman.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: I want to pivot, but not to the new warnings
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: about AI specifically, that these AI models are posing a
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: danger to humans with these bots breaking out of their
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: controlled environments, replicating themselves. Is there a concern among members
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: of House Intelligence that these bots could interfere with military operations?
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Well, there's concerns about the role that AI plays in
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: the intelligence space, certainly, and what applications that they might be.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: I won't comment on, but I will say this, that
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: I think that both Sam Altman and Dario Amadei are
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: the keys to this. They can address the pace of
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: this themselves. They don't necessarily need Congress to jump in
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: and say, do X, Y, and Z. However, I do
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: think that Congress should be in a position to address
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: AI and And I think if we don't set the
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: guardrails ourselves, we're basically turning this over to potential adversaries.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: But I think this is a combination. It's a joint
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: effort between legislators and these two individuals because, quite frankly,
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: and David Sachs mentioned this in his comments, these are essentially,
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: this is a duopoly. We're talking about two individuals that
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: have their hands together on the throttle and they can
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: throttle forward or throttle back at their discretion. And so
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I think what they have recognized is the need to
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: throttle back and what that implies from a regulatory standpoint.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: But I do think that they're in the driver's seat
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: and we're going to need to make sure that we're
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: working closely with them so that we can build a
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: framework that understands the need for us to lean on
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: AI without necessarily letting it go at its own pace.
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: Don't you worry about the issue of overregulation? And I
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: say that because with the midterms coming, what if control
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: of the House does go to the Democrats? You've had
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders, who's been very clear. He wants to stop
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: AI development, which the industry would tell you is a
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: dangerous idea because then the Chinese get ahead of us.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: Well, this is a national security imperative, and I would
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: expect Bernie Sanders to say, yes, let's stop everything and
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: turn it over to the communists. I don't want to
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: see that happen. And I'm not speaking with hyperbole here.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: I think in all seriousness, I think they would be
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: perfectly content to turn this over to our adversaries. We
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: need to lead. We haven't turned over nuclear technology to
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: our adversaries. We've been the leader in that for years.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: And we have the ability to sort of shape nuclear policy.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: We need to be in that same position as it
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: applies to AI. And I can't imagine why Bernie Sanders
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: would make such a ridiculous statement that we need to
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: slam on the brakes as if China's going to follow suit.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: House Intelligence Committee Chairman Congressman Rick Crawford.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: Mr.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Chairman, thank you for being with me this morning.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: You bet. Thank you.
