OpenAI and Anthropic will share their models with the US government


Meanwhile, lawmakers are considering new AI guardrails.

The companies signed memorandums of understanding with the US AI Safety Institute to provide access to the models both before and after their public release, the agency announced on Thursday. Sharing access to AI models is a significant step at a time when federal and state legislatures are considering what kinds of guardrails to place on the technology without stifling innovation. It’s garnered pushback from AI companies including OpenAI and Anthropic that warn it could harm smaller open-source developers, though it’s since undergone some changes and is still awaiting a signature from Governor Gavin Newsom.
