A scheduling conflict previously prevented Dario Amodei from attending a state function last week, prompting a personal invitation from the president. The chief executive of Anthropic will now travel to Washington this Sunday for a private meal with Donald Trump, marking the first time the two have met individually. The meal at the White House is the first one on one interaction between the US president and the head of the AI laboratory. Trump contacted Amodei directly to arrange the dinner to ensure the meeting took place after the missed appointment during the prior week's events.
