The White House drew online attention Wednesday after an artificial intelligence agreement released by the administration misspelled the country’s name as “Unites States” beneath President Donald Trump’s signature.

The error appeared in the “Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities,” released after Trump met leading AI executives Tuesday to discuss voluntary safety standards.

The agreement calls on participating companies to implement internal controls, establish monitoring teams, work with independent external auditors and create committees to review safety findings.

The typo quickly attracted mockery on social media, with users questioning the administration’s attention to detail on an agreement concerning advanced technology. Beyond the error, the accord reflects Trump’s preference for voluntary industry oversight rather than extensive federal regulation.

Trump has dismissed some warnings about catastrophic AI risks, while technology executives including Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and Elon Musk have publicly raised concerns about potential dangers from increasingly advanced AI systems.
