President Donald Trump has delayed signing an executive order aimed at evaluating AI models for security risks before their release. The delay stems from concerns about the language of the order and a perceived lack of support from tech CEOs, who were not available in time for the planned photo op.
- The order was designed to allow government agencies like the Office of the National Cyber Director to develop processes for evaluating AI models before they are released. This move aimed to address growing concerns about the security risks associated with advanced AI systems such as Anthropic’s Mythos and OpenAI’s GPT-5.5.
- One key point of contention was a proposed requirement that AI companies share their advanced models with the government at least 14 days but no more than 90 days before launch, which some stakeholders viewed as overly restrictive or intrusive.
- The delay underscores broader challenges in balancing national security objectives with concerns about privacy and innovation. It also highlights how executive orders can be subject to political pressures and practical considerations beyond their core intent.
