White House weighs vetting AI models before public release: NYT

President Donald Trump's administration is considering requiring US government oversight of artificial intelligence models before they are released to the public, a sharp reversal of the previous hands-off approach to the technology, The New York Times reported Monday. Administration officials want to avoid political fallout from a devastating AI-enabled cyberattack and are also evaluating whether advanced models could yield capabilities useful to the Pentagon and intelligence agencies, the report said.
