US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday to establish a voluntary framework for reviewing powerful new AI models before public release, aiming to improve national security and cybersecurity.
The order asks tech companies to share their AI models with the government for a voluntary review up to 30 days before release[1]. The Trump administration says this will enhance national security, particularly in cybersecurity. The National Security Agency and Department of Defense will help determine which AI models require scrutiny[1]. The executive order does not impose mandatory review requirements, a departure from earlier drafts that reportedly had a 90-day review period[2]. The Department of Justice will prioritize enforcement of AI-assisted hacking and unauthorized access crimes[2]. This is Trump's second executive order on AI, following a December order on national AI policy[2]. The administration has struck deals with Microsoft, Google DeepMind, and xAI to review early models of their new AI systems[1].
