The White House might stop freely promoting artificial intelligence technology, with reports from both The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post indicating that the US government will adopt a more cautious stance after witnessing the capabilities of Anthropic’s Mythos, the latest generation of AI models.<\/p>\n

According to the Thursday WSJ report, US Vice President JD Vance was “alarmed” after a call with the heads of the biggest artificial intelligence companies, with the Mythos model among the most worrying because of its ability to find software vulnerabilities on its own.<\/p>\n

The main factor, according to the\u00a0WSJ, is that these new models could target critical infrastructure administered by local authorities rather than the national government, with the local governments lacking the tools to disrupt such attacks when they occur.<\/span><\/p>\n

US National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said the Trump administration was working on a way to regulate how high-tech companies introduce new AI models to the market, with the main proposal being a system similar to the FDA’s for testing new drugs.<\/p>\n

This would, according to Hassett, guarantee that “they\u2019re released to the wild after they\u2019ve been proven safe,\u201d while an official working on the project told\u00a0The Washington Post that the details of<\/span> how it would work are “still being hashed out.”<\/p>\n

From ‘safety’ being a problem to a necessity<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Nathan Calvin, general counsel and vice president of state affairs at Encode, a nonprofit AI advocacy group, told The Washington Post that officials started hearing the words “safety” and “AI” in the White House, something that was seen as taboo for the Trump administration up to now.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe just heard a bunch of top Cabinet officials saying the words \u2018safety\u2019 and \u2018AI\u2019 in the same sentence, which is not how the admin was talking about these issues even a few…<\/p>\n
