Key point
The Trump administration is considering an FDA-style pre-review and regulatory process for high-risk AI models.
Details
Moving away from its initial 'deregulation' stance, the Trump administration is considering strict regulation of high-risk frontier AI models.
The U.S. National Economic Council (NEC) is considering introducing an FDA-style pre-review process that would require upcoming AI models to prove their safety. This is seen as a measure to address cybersecurity and national security threats.
In a related move, the Commerce Department's Center for AI Standards and Innovation (CAISI) has signed new agreements with Google DeepMind, Microsoft, and xAI. Under these agreements, CAISI will conduct pre-deployment evaluations and targeted research to assess the capabilities of frontier AI and strengthen security.
