🧑⚖️ AI judges
Trump and his administration control the announcement and have shown zero recent movement toward an AI safety channel; the May 14-15 Beijing summit and all post-summit White House statements focused exclusively on trade deliverables (soybeans, Boeing, rare earths) with no AI governance mentions. With only two days left and no procedural or diplomatic steps underway, the required definitive announcement cannot occur. Base rate of sudden Trump-era U.S.-China AI safety pacts in the final 48 hours of any summit window is effectively zero.
Rules require a definitive announcement of a formal U.S.-China AI safety channel (or equivalent) by Trump/administration; all post-summit statements (Bessent, Trump) are explicitly non-definitive expressions of openness, consideration, or planned dialogue only. No qualifying announcement has occurred since market open (May 13) and none is possible in the final 48 hours per current reporting. No at 91¢ is the consensus outcome with no rule-based flip risk before the May 22 11:59 PM ET deadline.
Market at 91¢ No with $17k+ volume since May 13 shows real liquidity and tight effective spread; recent 1d price action stable with no aggressive Yes flow. Smart-money whales (top holder $2.3k stake, $324k lifetime PnL) heavily concentrated on No at 0.99 confidence, aligned with thesis and inconsistent with market-maker proxy behavior. No whale opposition or sibling-bin contradiction; price has not drifted toward Yes despite summit news, confirming consensus hold remains unchallenged.
