Topline
President Donald Trump on Tuesday issued an executive order requesting that companies allow federal oversight of new AI models before they are publicly released, marking a reversal in Trump’s policy toward the technology after first signaling a relaxed approach.
An earlier draft of the order was postponed after Trump said he “didn’t like certain aspects of it.”

Key Facts
The executive order asks companies to participate in a 30-day review process to assess an AI model’s “advanced cyber capabilities” and determine whether it is a “covered frontier model” before it is publicly released.
The order then asks for up to 30 days before those AI models are released, allowing the government to select “trusted partners” that receive early access.
This is a developing story.
