Trump's Treasury chief on prices, AI and Iran | The Axios Show

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent joins Axios co-founder Mike Allen for a wide-ranging conversation about the U.S. economy, the war in Iran and the Trump administration's approach to AI. Bessent responds to Americans' frustration with the cost of living, explains why he doesn't think the AI boom is a repeat of the dot-com bubble and argues that AI leaders warning about losing control should slow down. He also discusses possible U.S.-China cooperation on AI risks, Treasury's economic pressure campaign against Iran, the bond market, Trump Accounts and his clashes inside the administration. Ti
