President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive order asking companies to provide artificial intelligence models to the federal government to assess their capabilities ahead of a full release.

Tech companies will comply with the order voluntarily. It asks them to participate in a benchmarking process to assess AI models’ cybersecurity capabilities, and allows the government to help select “trusted partners” that will receive early access to the models.

“Nothing in this section shall be construed to authorize the creation of a mandatory governmental licensing, preclearance, or permitting requirement,” the order said.

Trump signed the order in private, just weeks after he postponed a signing ceremony with prominent tech CEOs because he “didn’t like certain aspects of it,” he told reporters at the time. The order released on Tuesday is vague on specifics.
