There is a fight going on inside the White House over who gets to review the most powerful AI models before they are released and how much of that work the public gets to see.<\/p>\n

The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday, citing unnamed sources, that Trump administration officials have directed the Center for AI Standards and Innovation (CAISI) to pause public reports on its AI model reviews while President Donald Trump\u2019s latest AI executive order is implemented. CAISI is part of the Commerce Department and has become the federal government\u2019s main AI testing unit. It works with companies to evaluate frontier models prior to release and shares information with the public about their capabilities.<\/p>\n

According to the Journal, the directive came amid growing concern that advanced AI models, including Anthropic\u2019s Mythos, could be misused to assist with cyberattacks or the development of biological weapons. Anthropic initially held back a full public release of Mythos, instead giving access to a limited group of companies and organizations to look for security vulnerabilities. This week, the company released a public version with additional guardrails.<\/p>\n

The news also comes as the Trump administration, which has largely given the AI industry what it wants, is trying to figure out how much oversight it is willing to impose on AI labs.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

So far, the administration has taken a mostly hands-off approach to regulating AI. The only time the Trump administration took any significant action against an AI company was earlier this year when it designated Anthropic as a\u00a0supply chain risk\u00a0after the startup refused to allow its tech to be used by the Pentagon for \u201cany lawful purpose.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Trump\u2019s latest AI executive order, signed last week after being postponed, calls for a new framework that would let AI companies voluntarily give the federal government access to frontier models up to 30 days before their wider release to \u201cstrengthen the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure.\u201d An earlier draft reportedly called for a longer 90-day review window.<\/p>\n

The Wall Street Journal says the order is a win for Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, along with National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross, one of the officials who directed CAISI to stop publishing its reports.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

But not everyone in the administration appears to be on the same page. Some officials believe the executive order is assigning a new group to do work that CAISI was already doing, people familiar with the matter told The Wall Street Journal. CAISI is expected to continue evaluating models internally and working with other government agencies, but its ability to share those findings with the public now appears to be in question.<\/p>\n

According to The Wall Street Journal, top AI companies including OpenAI and Anthropic have had relationships with CAISI dating back to when the office was established during the Biden administration as the AI Safety Institute. Just last week, OpenAI called for CAISI to be strengthened.<\/p>\n

The White House and CAISI did not immediately respond to requests for comment.<\/p>\n

However, White House spokeswoman Liz Huston told The Wall Street Journal that, \u201cThe implementation of President Trump\u2019s AI agenda is a whole-of-government effort, with numerous agencies contributing to its success.\u201d<\/p>\n
