President Trump signed an executive order on June 2, 2026, requiring federal vetting of advanced AI models for national security risks before public release. - The order mandates up to 30 days of pre-release review for top AI systems.
- It targets models that exceed computational thresholds set by NIST. - A task force will assess risks and recommend safeguards within 90 days.
Critics warn the review could slow innovation, while the White House emphasizes national security.
