Trump-Backed Firm Partners with China-Tied AI Venture Amid National Security Concerns
World Liberty Financial, backed by US President Donald Trump, is collaborating with Hong Kong-based venture WorldClaw to offer AI models developed by Chinese companies flagged for national security concerns.
The Trump family earns revenue from the use of World Liberty's crypto tokens through this partnership, which has raised concerns about hypocrisy and potential security risks.
WorldClaw offers 90 AI models, with 43 developed by Alibaba, Baidu, Z.ai, and other Chinese technology companies restricted by the US government due to national-security concerns.
