Many have reached out to me regarding the new Cyber EO. A few thoughts:
First, President Trump is the most pro-innovation president we’ve ever had. He’s made it clear that the U.S. has to win the AI race and that a pro-innovation, pro-energy, and pro-infrastructure policy is the way to do that. Thanks to President Trump, AI will generate over a 2% tailwind to GDP growth this year, with hundreds of thousands of new construction jobs and 25-30% wage increases for blue collar workers. President Trump is the reason that we have an AI boom happening right now.
The change in the EO from a 90 day to 30 day period is a game changer because it allows our AI labs to comply with the voluntary framework without delaying new model releases. They can synchronize their efforts under the EO with other pre-release activities. Furthermore, I’ve been advised by the lawyers who draft EOs that 30 days means calendar days, not business days. In the AI race, every day counts.
As OSTP well notes, “The EO creates a process for frontier labs to voluntarily share cutting-edge cyber models in order to secure critical infrastructure and strengthen the government’s own cyber defenses. We are NOT conducting oversight of all new models, as that level of government overreach would have chilling effects on free speech and innovation.”
OSTP’s characterization is completely consistent with the discussions that I have participated in, where it was agreed that the EO is intended to apply only to models that represent a meaningful step-change in cyber capabilities (eg Mythos), not to incremental version numbers of existing models (eg Opus 4.7 -> 4.8).
Finally, I understand the concerns of many that this could morph into an “FDA for AI”. Of course bureaucratic mission creep is always a danger and this should be closely monitored. But the EO expressly forbids the creation of a new licensing, preclearance, or permitting regime. Most importantly, I do not believe that President Trump would allow this to happen.
As AI presents new policy challenges (such as cyberweapons), I believe that everyone in the administration is working diligently to navigate the issues with the American people in mind. I look forward to working with the Treasury, NSA, ONCD and others on the implementation of this framework.
The bogus narrative that AI is driving job losses is lazy and wrong.
President Trump is right, America must WIN the AI race. Innovation and adoption is how we do that!
President Trump is the most forward leaning president on innovation in American history.
When it comes to AI and cyber security, President Trump and his administration are not in the business of picking winners and losers. This administration has one goal; ensure the best and safest tech is deployed rapidly to defeat any and all threats.
We appreciate the effort being made by the frontier labs to ensure that goal is met.
The White House will continue to lead an America First effort that empowers America’s great innovators, not bureaucracy, to drive safe deployment of powerful technologies while keeping America safe.
Really, it’s common sense!
The CA Coastal Commission has formally apologized for attempting to stop SpaceX launches because they didn’t like Elon Musk’s political views. The Commission also just lost unanimously at the CA Supreme Court. Now is the time to reform and rein in this runaway agency.
Many thanks to the Crimson for profiling my work to launch the Harvard Rurality Forum. I’m proud to say that this event was a milestone for representation of rural life and issues at Harvard. Much more to come.
The Harvard Undergraduate Rural League drew campus leaders and national advocates for its first large-scale event, a forum focused on elevating rural student voices and representation at Harvard.

🚨 Here is the full 42 minutes of my crew and I exposing Minnesota fraud, this might be my most important work yet. We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like it and share it around like wildfire! Its time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable
We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening, the fraud must be stopped.
