New White House AI Security Rules Skip Freely Shared AI Models

The Trump administration finalized voluntary AI cybersecurity rules that exclude freely shared AI models. The rules, from a June 2026 executive order, apply only to private, locked-down AI systems with undefined "state-of-the-art" capabilities and "national security risks." Shared AI models face no review before or after release. Compliance is voluntary, and details were not planned for public release.
