1. White House said to consider vetting AI models before release
Representational image generated using ChatGPT.
The Trump admin is reportedly discussing an EO to create an AI working group.
The group would bring together tech executives and officials to shape oversight procedures.
UK-style review process could be adopted.
Last week: officials outlined plans to Anthropic, Google, and OpenAI executives.
Fortune 500 CEOs donāt wait and see when eye bags start showing up. They fix the problem fast, before it becomes the new normal.
Thatās why Particle Anti-Aging Face Cream sold out so quickly once the executive crowd discovered it. Itās a 6-in-1 anti-aging solution built for men, targeting eye bags, wrinkles, and dark spots with a powerful blend of 12 high-grade ingredients.
If you want that sharper, younger look that signals energy and authority, this is the move. Use code BAY20 for 20% off and free shipping before it sells out again.

3. Brockman says OpenAI stake worth ~$30B as Elon texts threats before trial
Elon Muskās lawyer asked Brockman why he hadnāt donated most of his earnings to OpenAIās nonprofit.
Attorney Steven Molo pressed Brockman on a 2017 journal entry asking what would take him to $1B.
Brockman disputed Moloās claim, saying he was weighing options as OpenAI explored a for-profit shift.
Stuart Russell, Muskās sole AI expert witness, warned of risks but was barred from discussing existential threats.
