In the wake of President Donald Trump’s sudden signing of an executive order on artificial intelligence, analysts and developers alike are scratching their heads trying to figure out what precisely it means. And while both the accelerationists and the safety hawks claim a victory, the nation’s intelligence communities seem to be benefitting the most from Trump’s executive order.

“If there’s any such thing as a Mythos Moment, the intelligence agency has taken the upper hand and they’re driving this process, it seems, more than anything else,” American Enterprise Institute senior fellow Will Rinehart told RealClearPolitics.

In May, Anthropic made the rare statement that it had a new model out but would not release it to the public because it was too dangerous. The large language model, called Mythos, has extensive codebase auditing abilities which allow it to pinpoint vulnerabilities better and faster than any other program. But in the wrong hands, that could exploit banking, infrastructure, and government programs. The alert from Anthropic served as a wake-up call for the White House.

The executive order directs federal agencies to create a classified process to vet frontier artificial intelligence models such as Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google 30 days before public release. The National Security Council, Treasury Department, and Defense Department will test the models for cybersecurity threats. But the executive order makes clear that the pre-release system is entirely voluntary. Developers who want White House favor will have an incentive to give early access but are not required to.

This closely follows an earlier version of the same order that Trump refused to sign two weeks ago. At the time, he told reporters that he was concerned it would affect the United States’ competition with China. But the only change between the original and the version signed this week was a shortening of the review period from 90 days to 30.

David Sacks, venture capitalist and former AI czar for the White House, balked at the 90-day number. According to Politico, he called Trump on the day he was supposed to sign the first bill and urged the president to eliminate any middle process between development and release. But AI hawks in the White House........
