White House weighs vetting AI models before public release: NYT

President Donald Trump’s administration is considering requiring US government oversight of artificial intelligence models before they are released to the public, a sharp reversal of the previous hands-off approach to the technology, The New York Times reported Monday.

The White House is discussing an executive order that would establish a working group of tech executives and government officials to examine potential review procedures for new AI models, the newspaper reported, citing US officials and people with knowledge of the deliberations.
