    Noteworthy | Promoting Advanced Artificial Intelligence Innovation and Security - CNAS (opens in new tab)

    The Trump administration issued an executive order on June 3, 2026, that requires AI models to undergo national security vetting 30 days before public release. This move attempts to balance the need for AI innovation with growing national security risks posed by advanced technologies. Experts question the effectiveness of this voluntary arrangement, noting it may leave security decisions in the hands of a few private companies.

    A study by Penn State researchers found that AI chatbots, like ChatGPT, respond to healthcare queries with nearly 76% accuracy. This level of accuracy raises concerns about the reliability of AI in real-world medical situations, suggesting that trained physicians are better suited to handle patient inquiries. The team will present their findings at the Association for Computing Machinery Fairness, Accountability and Transparency conference later this month.

    [2606.04261] Can Generalist Agents Automate Data Curation? (opens in new tab)

    Researchers have developed a benchmark called Curation-Bench to test if generalist coding agents can automate data curation for AI. The study finds that while these agents can run the curation loop effectively, they require structured guidance to explore new data policies beyond basic enhancements. This suggests that future advancements in automated data curation will depend on improved methods for guiding agent exploration.
