On Tuesday, President Trump signed an executive order\u00a0calling for the creation of a framework designed to give the federal government the capability to evaluate AI models. The order tasks the Office of the National Cyber Director, which is responsible for advising the president on cybersecurity matters, with developing a process that would allow the US to share information about software vulnerabilities identified by AI systems like Claude Mythos with operators of critical infrastructure, including banks, local utilities and hospitals, before those models are made publicly available.<\/p>\n

Trump was originally expected to announce the order on May 21, but according to Axios the White House postponed the signing ceremony following pressure from tech industry insiders. The president later told reporters he “didn’t like certain aspects” of the original order. According to Politico, Trump took part in small, high-level White House meeting where he and his advisors agreed on a new scaled-back order. The new directive, signed in a private ceremony, asks some AI companies with sharing their most powerful models for voluntary government review 30 days before making them available to the public. An earlier draft had called for giving the government as much as 90 days to review a model, with some industry officials reportedly pushing for that period be shortened to as little as 14 days before today’s announcement.<\/p>\n

Prior to the announcement, Engadget spoke to the Center for Democracy and Technology. “I think the idea of testing, particularly for critical infrastructure providers, to be able to identify vulnerabilities and patch them before the capabilities become widely available, there’s a lot of sense to that,” Samir Jain, the organization’s vice-president of policy, told Engadget. Although he had not seen the final executive order, Jain called the order “opaque” at the time, noting it doesn’t give the public much visibility…<\/p>\n
