Svmuu News: The U.S. government is engaged in high-level negotiations with AI companies and plans to announce voluntary standards for the release of new models as early as next week.
The standards will set benchmarks for models with cutting-edge network capabilities and establish a release schedule to streamline future model releases. This move aims to implement the U.S. president’s executive order on AI issued last month. U.S. officials will also clarify access rights to advanced AI models both domestically and internationally, a step that could lay the foundation for a global framework involving U.S. allies.
Previously, the U.S. government intervened in the release of new tools by Anthropic and OpenAI. Anthropic’s latest model was subject to export controls on June 12 due to concerns over cybersecurity risks and other issues; those restrictions were lifted on Tuesday. Currently, technical teams from AI labs are meeting regularly with government officials to reach a consensus. (FT)
