Trump has described the agreement as morally binding and emphasised industry self-policing.So is Super Intelligence a new era of AI governance, or largely a rebrand accompanied by voluntary promises? And as Washington bets on industry-led safeguards, who ultimately holds the companies developing increasingly powerful AI systems accountable? Shreya Chandra has more
