Microsoft, xAI and Google will share AI models with US government for security reviews

Microsoft, Alphabet-owned Google and Elon Musk’s xAI will give the U.S. government early access to new artificial intelligence models before their public release to allow checks for national security risks under a new deal.

The Center for AI Standards and Innovation (CAISI) at the Department of Commerce said on Tuesday that the agreement would allow ‌it to evaluate ⁠the ⁠models before deployment and conduct research to assess their capabilities and security risks.
