Trump Signs Executive Order That Invites Vetting of Top AI Models for National Security Risks

President Trump signed an executive order establishing a voluntary framework for the federal government to review the national security risks of the most advanced AI systems (models built by companies like OpenAI and Google that represent the cutting edge of AI development) before their public release, with a 30-day review period. The order aims to balance security concerns with concerns about slowing innovation, and it allows frontier labs to voluntarily share their most advanced models to help secure critical infrastructure and strengthen government cyber defenses.
