Amid the frenzy over former President Donald Trump’s arraignment, the White House was trying to continue with business as usual, even if no one watching cable or network news was paying attention Tuesday.
President Joe Biden met with his science and technology advisers at the White House as Trump was appearing in a Manhattan courtroom. He did not entertain questions from reporters about the charges against his predecessor and possible future rival.
Biden thanked members of the council for attending the in-person meeting, and when a reporter asked whether artificial intelligence is dangerous, the president responded, “It remains to be seen. Could be.”
