This bill requires the Department of Commerce to assess and publish information about risks related to use of certain foreign adversary artificial intelligence (AI) models. The bill also authorizes Commerce to take specified actions to support adoption of U.S. AI models.
Specifically, the bill requires Commerce to identify, assess, and make public (as appropriate) any risk associated with the adoption and use of open AI models developed or made available by China, Iran, North Korea, or Russia, or an individual or entity subject to the control thereof. This includes risks related to the confidentiality of personal or proprietary information, the efficacy of features intended to prevent misuse of a model, or the economic or national security of the United States.
