The White House plans to release an executive order on cybersecurity and artificial intelligence as soon as this week, Axios reported on Tuesday, citing sources familiar with the matter. The order outlines plans for a voluntary framework for AI developers to inform the government about new releases, Axios reported, citing a readout, as per Reuters.
This comes as the United States on Tuesday began enforcing a law requiring tech platforms to remove sexual deepfakes and other non-consensual intimate imagery, but experts warned of shortcomings and raised online censorship concerns. President Donald Trump signed the Take It Down Act last year, criminalizing the online distribution of non-consensual sexual imagery that is often created using cheap and widely available artificial intelligence tools.
