Trump says AI "more good than bad" and voices guarded support for Flock cameras

Asked about growing concerns over artificial intelligence, President Donald Trump said he believed AI would be "more good than bad" and that "Whoever wins AI wins," asserting U.S. leadership in the field. When asked whether he has used AI himself, he replied that he does not use it but said many tech leaders have shared similar messages about the technology’s benefits.

On Flock cameras—a facial-recognition-adjacent surveillance system raised by reporters—Trump said he "sort of" liked them for law enforcement because "they help catch a lot of criminals," while also acknowledging that "some people" view them as an infringement on privacy. He did not announce any policy changes regarding surveillance technology.
