The White House has formed a task force to assess the risks and opportunities posed by artificial intelligence, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal cited by Anadolu Agency.
The group is being led by the U.S. director of national intelligence and has been given 120 days to deliver its findings in a report, the report said.
The move adds to a series of federal initiatives examining how artificial intelligence technologies intersect with national security, the economy and regulatory policy. Washington has faced growing pressure from lawmakers, industry groups and foreign governments to clarify its approach to AI oversight as the technology's capabilities and adoption accelerate.
Further details on the task force's specific mandate, membership beyond its stated leadership, and the scope of risks it will examine were not immediately available.
The report is expected to inform how the administration balances encouraging AI innovation with managing potential security and safety concerns, though the White House has not publicly outlined next steps pending its completion.
