  "summary": "The White House has announced that it has met its deadline to establish a voluntary framework for evaluating advanced AI models. According to Axios, the White House confirmed this on Monday, but did not provide details of the framework.\n\nThe framework was ordered by President Donald Trump in an executive order on June 2, which directed federal officials to create a process for AI developers to determine whether models under development qualify as \"covered frontier models\". CNBC reports that the voluntary program allows participating developers to provide the government access to those models for up to 30 days before making them available to other trusted partners.\n\nThe White House will host artificial intelligence companies, including Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google, to discuss the newly completed framework. According to Axios, the framework is meant to give AI developers a structure for engaging the government to determine whether models under development would be covered, and is being closely watched by policymakers, AI safety advocates, and US allies.",
