Against the backdrop of growing concerns over the cybersecurity risks posed by advanced AI systems, the White House is expected to discuss a newly completed voluntary framework for evaluating the cybersecurity capabilities of the industry’s most advanced AI models.

Today, Trump administration officials are expected to meet representatives from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Meta, according to media reports.

President Donald Trump’s June 2 executive order on AI cybersecurity directs federal officials to develop a classified benchmarking process to assess the cybersecurity capabilities of advanced AI models and determine when a model should be designated a “covered frontier model.”

Under the voluntary framework, AI companies may choose to provide the US government with early access to covered frontier models for up to 30 days before their planned release, subject to confidentiality and intellectual property protections.

The order also states that the framework does not establish a mandatory government licensing or approval process for AI models.

The executive order further directs the Attorney General to prioritize enforcement of federal criminal laws against individuals who use AI to illegally access or damage computer systems.
