## Description

On Thursday, President Trump hosted a White House dinner with tech leaders, including Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, Microsoft’s Bill Gates, and Apple's Tim Cook. As Axios notes, the dinner comes as Big Tech pushes for a hands-off approach to AI from the government. But in a striking “hot mic” moment, after Zuckerberg shared plans for Meta to invest at least $600 billion in the U.S., he turned to Trump to say “Sorry, I wasn’t ready… I wasn’t sure what number you wanted to go with.”
