Microsoft, Google, xAI giving government early access to AI models for review

Google DeepMind, Microsoft, and xAI have agreed to share their AI models with the US government's Center for AI Standards and Innovation for pre-deployment evaluations and research. The agreements build upon similar agreements with OpenAI and Anthropic in 2024.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology announced that Google DeepMind, Microsoft, and xAI will give their AI models to the Center for AI Standards and Innovation for testing and research. The center will assess the models' capabilities and security before and after deployment. This move follows similar agreements with OpenAI and Anthropic in 2024. The agreements come as the White House considers vetting AI models before release, potentially through an executive order. The Pentagon has been testing Anthropic's Mythos model to identify security vulnerabilities. The US government is increasing oversight of AI development, diverging from President Trump's pro-innovation, light-touch regulation approach.
