White House wants US government review of OpenAI, Anthropic’s new AI models before UK access — Report
A senior US administration official reportedly said the White House wants to review the models and take steps to ensure US systems are secure before they are shared with American partners.
The White House has requested that OpenAI and Anthropic refrain from sharing their latest AI models with the UK government's AI testing agency (AISI) until the US government has the opportunity to test them first, according to a report by Politico. The Office of the National Cyber Director reportedly made this request, with a senior administration official stating that the White House wants to ensure the models are secure before sharing them with American partners.
The policy, according to the official, applies to all new frontier AI models. Anthropic has complied with this request, not providing its Claude Mythos 5.1 model to the AISI, while AI testing has revealed potential security risks associated with increasingly powerful AI systems.
