US EditionWhite House Considers Vetting New AI Models
The proposed working group would outline review procedures as officials weigh national-security concerns and possible federal oversight before AI models reach the market.
- On Monday, May 4, 2026, the Trump administration began exploring federal review processes for new AI models before they reach the market, according to the New York Times.
- This shift marks a significant reversal in recent months, as the administration previously pursued an action plan that reduced tech regulations and threatened to cut funding for states impeding AI infrastructure.
- White House officials discussed these proposed oversight plans last week during a meeting with representatives from major tech firms, including Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI.
- To outline these procedures, officials are forming a working group, with some sources suggesting the National Security Agency or the White House Office of the National Cyber Director lead the effort.
- Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill previously proposed a 10-year moratorium on state AI regulation, while FCC Chairman Brendan Carr has consistently advocated for a light-touch approach to federal oversight.
