Trump’s AI security order acknowledges risks but stops short of regulating industry
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on June 2, 2026, establishing a framework for AI security, surprising some technology and policy watchers.
The executive order aims to enhance the security of federal and private computer systems using AI technology.
The order's provisions for the AI industry are voluntary and explicitly forbid mandatory government licensing or pre-clearance for new AI models.
The order acknowledges risks from AI systems that can find software vulnerabilities and create malicious code, marking a first step in addressing AI safety risks for national security.
