White House AI task force adopts charter, begins 120-day review

Semafor reports the task force adopted its charter after its first official meeting on October 15, starting a 120-day window. It agreed to commission an AI risk report from the President’s Council of Advisers on Science and Technology and form a working group to implement the White House Accord on Super Intelligence. A vice chair will develop protocols for AI labs to report cyber incidents to the government. Whether companies would be legally required to follow new reporting mechanisms remains unclear.
