History

Historical Context

In October 2016 the Obama OSTP released “Preparing for the Future of Artificial Intelligence,” urging coordinated national effort. Biden’s 2023 Executive Order 14110 set AI safety standards, which Trump revoked in January 2025 and replaced with EO 14179 and later EO 14365 in December 2025 to preempt state laws. The moves echo debates involving industry leaders such as Elon Musk and NIST’s AI risk framework.
