The White House’s AI task force has formally adopted its charter, initiating a 120-day window to address government responses to rapid AI development. According to Semafor, the task force held its first official meeting Thursday and agreed to commission a report from the President’s Council of Advisers on Science and Technology. This report will evaluate AI risks regarding model control and accountability, biosecurity and dual-use applications, and cybersecurity and critical infrastructure protection.
The task force also agreed to establish a working group to implement the White House Accord on Super Intelligence, which was signed by major AI CEOs this month. This process is being led by task force chair and Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, along with National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross. A White House official stated that the Super Intelligence Force will engage with industry stakeholders, frontier model developers, civil liberties advocates, consumer protection groups, and law enforcement agencies to inform its efforts.
