Using an unordered list, summarize the following article with between 4 and 8 key points.
\n U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to sign an executive order on AI and cybersecurity as soon as Thursday, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters, as pressure grows from parts of his political base to increase oversight of new AI models, such as Anthropic\u2019s Mythos.The White House was working to get AI company CEOs to a signing ceremony with President Donald Trump, another source familiar with the planning said.Framework For AI DevelopersThe order would create a voluntary framework for AI developers to engage with the U.S. government about the public release of covered models, the sources said. Under the framework, the developers would be asked to provide their models to the government 90 days before public release, and also give pre-public access to critical infrastructure providers such as banks, one of the people said.Such an approach may represent a middle ground among Trump supporters.MAGA activists, including former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and right-wing political organizer Amy Kremer, have been pressing the White House to require AI developers to submit their most capable models for government security tests.On the other side of the debate are tech industry supporters such as venture capitalist Marc Andreessen and former Trump adviser David Sacks, who are resistant to mandatory requirements. Sacks in March stepped down from his role as Trump\u2019s lead AI official and is now co-chairing the president\u2019s tech advisory committee. Trump\u2019s AI policies in his second term have largely reflected the tech industry\u2019s perspective.New Models Drive DebatesA White House spokesperson called any discussion about AI policy details \u201cspeculation.\u201d A National Security Agency spokesperson directed Reuters to contact the White House when asked about details of the president\u2019s plan. National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross, who serves as Trump\u2019s principal adviser on cybersecurity policy and strategy, did not respond to requests for comment.The order was the result of work by White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, White House Science & Technology Adviser Michael Kratsios, Wiles\u2019 deputy Walker Barrett, and Cairncross over the last month, with input from AI companies, the source familiar with the planning said.The balance of power between the two groups of Trump\u2019s supporters has shifted, driven by the release of powerful new AI systems, including Mythos and OpenAI\u2019s GPT-5.5-Cyber. The companies warn the new models could supercharge complex cyberattacks, though some cybersecurity executives have said those fears are overblown.Mythos\u2019 arrival prompted a battle among the president\u2019s supporters to influence how he responds. The outcome of that debate could have a significant impact on the AI industry if the president\u2019s decision slows the rollout of large language models or prompts the companies to change how a model performs to address safety concerns. Either option could hurt profits.AI GuardrailsRepublicans have traditionally favored limited government and opposed regulations, but support is growing among their more vocal populist supporters to impose AI guardrails. The populist faction is asking Trump to require government approval of \u201cpotentially dangerous\u201d AI systems before they\u2019re deployed, according to a letter they sent to the White House last Friday.Kremer said it is \u201cantithetical\u201d to her political views to advocate for new regulations, but AI requires a different approach.\u201cYou can\u2019t count on these people that are leading these AI companies to put our interests at heart and do what\u2019s right to protect the American people,\u201d she said.Kremer helped organize a January 6, 2021, rally that preceded the Capitol riot. She said in an interview that she was not among the thousands of Trump supporters who stormed the Capitol that day.(with inputs from Reuters)
