Trump AI safety guidelines reportedly exempt Chinese models

The new safety review guidelines are described as exempting Chinese AI models, while OpenAI and Anthropic are not covered by the exemption.

The New York Times Business reports that the Trump administration’s new AI safety review guidelines would exempt certain Chinese artificial intelligence models.

According to the report, the exemption does not extend to OpenAI and Anthropic, which would still be subject to the safety review.

The change suggests the administration’s approach may treat AI systems differently based on origin, creating a distinct compliance path for Chinese models versus US-based developers.
