White House won't publicly release AI model evaluation framework it reviewed today with Meta, Nvidia, Microsoft, OpenAI, Anthropic, variety of smaller companies | Fortune
Summary
The Trump White House has finalized a voluntary framework for federal pre-release reviews of cybersecurity risks in frontier AI models and briefed staff from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Nvidia, Microsoft and smaller firms on Tuesday. The process applies to closed-source advanced models and excludes systems that release underlying code. The White House does not plan to publicly release the evaluation rubric; details will be shared only with companies that participate. Five Senate Democrats asked the administration Monday to explain its approach to advanced model access.
