White House Fractures Over AI Rules After Trump’s Reversal
TL;DR
A White House rift has formed over President Trump’s abrupt postponement of a planned executive order on artificial intelligence. David Sacks pushes for a faster, lighter regulatory touch, while Pete Hegseth and Emil Michael advocate more caution; Susie Wiles and Scott Bessent sit in the middle. The administration has been negotiating a framework with OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic that would require government insight into AI models without mandating compliance, but no final path has been set as factions jockey for influence.
