Pledge by Trump and AI Leaders Misspells 'United States'
A voluntary pledge on AI safety signed by President Donald Trump and top AI leaders contains a spelling error, with 'United States' written as 'Unites States' in a shared image.
President Donald Trump and executives from leading artificial intelligence companies signed a voluntary pledge on Tuesday, titled "Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities." The agreement aims to increase safety measures and controls amid the rapid advancement of AI technologies.
However, the signing event was marked by a notable error. An image of the signed document, shared by President Trump on his Truth Social account, misspelled "United States" as "Unites States." The error appears directly below the president's signature.
Other signatories and their respective companies were spelled correctly in the photograph. Gizmodo reporter Matt Novak was among the first to highlight the misspelling. TechCrunch has reached out to relevant parties for comment on the error.
The commitment is intended to foster responsible AI development and ensure that new technologies are created safely and for the benefit of society. Despite the misspelling, discussions continue regarding the substance of the pledge and its implications for future AI governance.
