Agreement Overview
Google DeepMind, Microsoft, and Elon Musk’s xAI have agreed to allow the U.S. government to review new AI models before they are released to the public. In an announcement on Tuesday, the Commerce Department’s Center for AI Standards and Innovation (CAISI) said it will work with the AI companies to perform pre‑deployment evaluations and targeted research to better assess frontier AI capabilities.
CAISI, which began evaluating models from OpenAI and Anthropic in 2024, reports that it has completed 40 reviews so far. Both companies have renegotiated their existing partnerships with the center to better align with priorities in the current administration.
