According to Axios, the White House does not plan to publicly release its new framework for evaluating advanced AI models. This decision has sparked strong dissatisfaction among AI safety and policy researchers.
Critics argue that keeping core definitions, such as what constitutes a "covered model," confidential is undemocratic. They describe these backroom deals regarding AI threat assessment as lacking transparency and potentially making the world a more dangerous place.
