BlockBeats News, May 21 — According to sources familiar with the matter, U.S. President Trump is expected to issue an executive order aimed at strengthening AI cybersecurity as early as Thursday, and has invited tech industry leaders to attend the signing event.

It is expected that the order Trump will sign will modify the existing cybersecurity information sharing program to include AI companies, but will not mandate federal approval of cutting-edge models. Instead, the order will call for voluntary testing of advanced AI systems by the government to identify and fix vulnerabilities in federal, state, and local networks, as well as U.S. critical infrastructure, without the need for extensive new regulations.

Sources say that invitations have been sent to several tech industry executives to attend the signing ceremony at the White House on Thursday, but it is currently unclear who will participate.

Not requiring federal approval, this move is quite interesting, giving OpenAI and Anthropic some relief.

Trump is trying to adopt Biden's AI regulation framework, but switching to a voluntary model, tech giants are probably thrilled.

Vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure rely on companies to fix them voluntarily, which doesn't seem very reliable.

Voluntary test? Sounds like a disclaimer.
