White House AI Task Force Adopts 120-Day Charter

The White House AI task force has adopted a charter and begun a 120-day review of how the government should respond to the rapid development of AI, Semafor reported. At its first official meeting, the group commissioned the President’s Council of Advisers on Science and Technology to assess risks involving cybersecurity and critical infrastructure, biosecurity and dual-use applications, and model control and accountability. ^[1]

The task force also agreed to form a working group to implement the White House Accord on Super Intelligence, according to Semafor. The report does not establish how any new protocols will be enforced: the outlet said it remained unclear how compliance would work or how existing laws might apply to companies that do not follow them. ^[1]
