The White House created an AI task force with a 120-day deadline to report on risks and opportunities.

The White House is assembling a working group that will have to prepare a report within 120 days on the risks and opportunities of artificial intelligence (AI), as well as determine the responsibilities of federal authorities in this area, the Wall Street Journal reports.

“The new White House task force will have 120 days to compile a report on the risks and opportunities of artificial intelligence, as well as determine the area of ​​responsibilities of the federal authorities,” the newspaper writes.

As noted by the Director of National Intelligence of the United States Jay Clayton, who, according to the newspaper, also headed the US “Superintelligence Forces,” this group is designed to ensure US leadership in the field of AI.

Clayton told the newspaper that the work is expected to develop regulatory mechanisms similar to those in other areas. In addition, the publication names the prevention of excessive regulation, which could hinder innovation and competition in the field of AI, as the main task of the special group.

According to the newspaper, the group, among other people, will include Pentagon head Pete Hegseth, US Vice President J.D. Vance, and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

At the end of September, US President Donald Trump signed a decree instructing authorities to call artificial intelligence “superintelligence.”

Earlier, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said the company would not go public in 2026 amid concerns about the safety of AI. Altman is convinced of the possibility of creating a system that people will not control. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei believes powerful artificial intelligence models can bypass human attempts to stop their work.
