Participation by AI developers would be voluntary, the order says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAdvanced AI capabilities make our Nation stronger, but also introduce new national security considerations that require coordinated action across executive departments and agencies,\u201d the order says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was not immediately clear to what extent the order differed from the one Trump declined to sign on May 21.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The order says the government would have only 30 days to review an AI system, a shorter time frame than some in the industry were expecting. A longer time period might have been seen as too burdensome for a fast-moving and highly competitive industry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump canceled an Oval Office event with tech industry executives last month because he did not like what he saw in the earlier version of the order\u2019s text. \u201cWe\u2019re leading China, we\u2019re leading everybody, and I don\u2019t want to do anything that\u2019s going to get in the way of that lead,\u201d Trump told reporters at the time.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"zox-ad-label\">Advertisement.

Several companies had been planning to have executives present at the May 21 signing event. Trump ended up signing it without any ceremony.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The White House said in a social media post Tuesday that the executive order \u201ccreates a process for frontier labs to voluntarily share cutting-edge&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.securityweek.com\/trump-signs-executive-order-that-invites-vetting-of-top-ai-models-for-national-security-risks\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump Signs Executive Order That Invites Vetting of Top AI Models for National Security Risks&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":265917,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.securityweek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/White-House-Cybersecurity.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[26,20],"class_list":["post-265916","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","tag-ai","tag-artificial-intelligence"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265916"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=265916"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265916\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":265918,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265916\/revisions\/265918"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/265917"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=265916"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=265916"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=265916"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
