Trump signs AI executive order asking companies to give government early access to models
President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order asking artificial intelligence companies to provide models to the federal government to assess their capabilities ahead of a full release.
The companies will comply with the order voluntarily. The order asks them to participate in a benchmarking process to "to assess the advanced cyber capabilities" and determine whether the model should be considered a "covered frontier model." It also allows the government to help select the "trusted partners" that will receive early access to the models.
"Nothing in this section shall be construed to authorize the creation of a mandatory governmental licensing, preclearance, or permitting requirement for the development, publication, release, or distribution of new AI models, including frontier models," the order said.
Trump signed the order in private, just weeks after he postponed a signing ceremony with prominent tech CEOs because he "didn't like certain aspects of it," he told reporters at the time.
