  • The White House intends to issue an executive order to review advanced AI models by government agencies before they are publicly released; this plan is expected to be released by May 21.
  • Several tech companies and industry leaders participated in briefings hosted by the White House to discuss this review framework.
  • The voluntary framework will require AI developers to notify the government about their planned new AI models up to 90 days prior to release.
  • Government agencies, including NSA, ONCD, Office of Science and Technology Policy, and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, will conduct classified reviews on the selected AI models.
  • This initiative is part of a broader National Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence introduced in March, which aims to create a consistent national policy for AI innovation.
  • The administration is keen to prevent a patchwork of conflicting state laws that could hinder innovation and U.S. leadership in global AI.
  • As companies increasingly adopt AI, American businesses are facing significant threats such as AI-generated cyberattacks, with larger enterprises having a higher incidence of such attacks.
