“President Donald Trump signed a landmark executive order Tuesday that lays the foundation for federal testing of the world’s most powerful AI systems before they are publicly released. The order, signed in private, directs federal agencies — including the Defense Department, the Treasury and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency — to shore up the country’s cybersecurity defenses for critical infrastructure and charts out a mechanism for the federal government to test and vet the most powerful AI systems for safety issues before they are deployed. The testing would rely on voluntary collaboration from America’s leading AI companies, like Anthropic, OpenAI and Google.” (06/02/26)
