The letter inviting the CEOs, obtained by FOX Business, states that President Biden "previously made clear our expectation that companies like yours must make sure their products are safe before making them available to the public."

It adds, "We aim to have a frank discussion of the risks we each see in current and near-term AI development, actions to mitigate those risks, and other ways we can work together to ensure the American people benefit from advances in AI while being protected from its harms."

The president plans to have her more visible to offset concerns about his age as he seeks re-election for another four-year term. The president is 80 years old, and the vice president is 58.
