We’re releasing a blueprint outlining how the U.S. can build a durable federal framework for governing increasingly capable AI systems. The blueprint outlines a three-part strategy: building a national framework that leverages the emerging consensus reflected in state frontier safety laws; strengthening CAISI as the U.S. federal government’s primary institution for frontier AI safety; and mobilizing a broader resilience plan across government to address the national security and public safety challenges posed by frontier AI.

This is an important moment to seize. States have started developing harmonized approaches to frontier AI governance, including California’s SB 53, New York’s RAISE Act, and Illinois’s SB 315, and the White House’s new executive order on Promoting Advanced Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Security⁠(opens in a new window) is another important step forward. The federal government must now build on that foundation and create a durable federal framework capable of evolving alongside the technology itself.
