白宫人工智能特别工作组已正式通过工作章程，由此开启了为期120天的任务期限——在此期间，该工作组需就政府应如何应对人工智能技术的迅猛发展这一棘手问题给出答案。
The White House’s AI task force has formally adopted its charter, kicking off the short 120-day window it’s been given to answer some extremely thorny questions about how the government should handle the rapid development of AI technology.
据最先向Sema福尔媒体透露的消息，该工作组在周四举行的首次正式会议上一致决定，委托总统科技顾问委员会撰写一份报告，以评估人工智能在三个领域的潜在风险：网络安全与关键基础设施保护、生物安全及军民两用技术应用，以及模型管控与责任界定。
According to an announcement shared first with Semafor, the task force agreed after its first official meeting Thursday to commission a report from the President’s Council of Advisers on Science and Technology to evaluate AI risk in three areas: cybersecurity and critical infrastructure protection, biosecurity and dual-use applications, and model control and accountability.
一位白宫官员在声明中称：“在整个工作过程中，该工作组将与前沿模型研发企业及其他人工智能相关企业、消费者权益保护组织、公民自由倡导团体、行业利益相关方，以及联邦和各州执法机构保持密切沟通，从而为各项工作提供决策依据并加以落实。该工作组随时准备确保《超级智能协议》得以实施，助力美国持续在超级智能领域保持领先地位，最终造福美国民众。”
“Throughout its work, the [task force] will engage with frontier model developers and other SI companies, consumer protection groups, and civil liberties advocates, industry stakeholders, and federal and state law enforcement agencies to inform and implement its efforts,” a White House official said in a statement. “The [Super Intelligence Force] stands ready to ensure implementation of the Accord and continued U.S. leadership on SI for the benefit of the American people.”
此外，工作组还决定设立专门工作小组来落实本月由多家人工智能企业首席执行官共同签署的《白宫超级智能协议》，该工作将由工作组主席、国家情报总监杰伊·克莱顿与国家网络事务主任肖恩·凯恩克罗斯牵头推进。
It also agreed to make a working group tasked with implementing the White House Accord on Super Intelligence that major AI CEOs signed this month, a process led by Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, the task force’s chair, along with National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross.
作为工作组副主席的国防部副部长埃米尔·迈克尔将负责制定相关规程，要求各实验室及时向政府通报数据泄露、网络攻击及其他各类网络安全问题。迈克尔还负责与各前沿人工智能实验室保持联络，并统筹规划整个政府层面在人工智能领域的长期协作事宜。
Defense Undersecret Emil Michael, a task force vice chair, will lead an effort to develop protocols for labs to tell the government about breaches, hacks and other cyber issues. Michael is also in charge of interfacing with frontier AI labs and figuring out long-term coordination on AI across the government.
特别工作组还同意成立一个“执法与消费者保护协调委员会”，该委员会将包括司法部和联邦贸易委员会，由联邦贸易委员会主席安德鲁·弗格森领导，他同时也是副主席。而最后一位副主席，人事管理局局长斯科特·库珀，将与公共和私营部门合作开展关键基础设施保护工作，并将与劳工部合作研究人工智能对美国劳动力和经济的影响。
The task force also agreed to create a “law enforcement and consumer protection coordination committee” including the Justice Department and Federal Trade Commission, led by FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson, also a vice chair. And the last vice chair, Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor, will work with the public and private sector on critical infrastructure protection, and will work with the Department of Labor on studying the impact of AI on the American workforce and economy.
除了主席之外，特别工作组的成员还包括：副总统JD·万斯，财政部长斯科特·贝森特，国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯，以及白宫科学技术政策办公室主任迈克尔·克拉茨奥斯，此外还有凯恩克罗斯、克里斯·克洛姆（他被提名为卫生与公众服务部第二号人物）、社会安全局局长弗兰克·比西尼亚诺，以及国家安全局局长约书亚·拉德，还有白宫幕僚长苏西·怀尔斯及其副手理查德·沃尔特斯。
Members of the task force beyond the chairs include: Vice President JD Vance, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios, plus Cairncross, Chris Klomp, the nominee to be the No. 2 at the Department of Health and Human Services, Social Security Administration Commissioner Frank Bisignano, and National Security Agency Director Joshua Rudd, along with White House chief of staff Susie Wiles and her deputy, Richard Walters.
目前尚不完全清楚特别工作组的合规要求将如何执行，或者现行法律可能如何适用于不遵守新协议的公司。一位白宫官员向《Semafor》透露，一种可能的制裁手段是出口管制。五角大楼曾在某一时刻临时对人工智能公司Anthropic实施出口管制，原因是该公司拒绝向政府无条件提供其模型的访问权限。
It’s not yet entirely clear how compliance with the task force will be enforced or how current law may apply to companies who don’t adhere to the new protocols. A White House official told Semafor one stick could be export controls, which the Pentagon at one point temporarily imposed on Anthropic after the company refused to grant the government unfettered access to its models.
