AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
President Donald Trump postponed signing an executive order that would have required developers of advanced artificial‑intelligence models to submit “frontier” systems to the federal government for review at least 90 days before release—a move that sparked pushback from major tech figures such as Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and venture capitalist David Sacks, while OpenAI was supportive. The draft order, which would have made participation voluntary and tasked the Treasury Department with running the review program alongside agencies like the NSA and CISA, targeted “covered frontier models” such as Anthropic’s Claude Mythos Preview, a tool noted for its ability to uncover and chain together high‑severity software vulnerabilities. It also called for federal agencies to expand internal AI‑driven cybersecurity programs and earmark grant funding for such initiatives. After several invited industry leaders indicated they could not attend a signing ceremony, Trump cited their absence as a factor in delaying the order; meanwhile, the White House has given OpenAI permission to assist state‑level AI regulations, contrasting with an earlier order aimed at limiting such state laws.
