AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require the Secretary of Energy to create an Advanced Artificial Intelligence Evaluation Program within 90 days to test advanced AI systems, defined as those trained with more than 10^26 computing operations. Developers of these systems would have to take part in the program and give the Department of Energy, on request, materials such as code, training data, and model weights. No one could deploy an advanced AI system unless they comply, and violations would carry fines of at least $1,000,000 per day. The Secretary would have to send Congress a plan for permanent federal oversight of advanced AI within 360 days and update it yearly. The program would end after 7 years unless Congress renews it.
