CAISSI faces independence concerns over White House reporting requests

CAISSI AI safety White House Department of Commerce artificial intelligence regulation

The Center for Advancing Innovation and Standards for Super Intelligence (CAISSI), a division of the U.S. Commerce Department, is facing scrutiny regarding its independence. Former government officials report that CAISSI staff have been asked to provide informal reports to a White House office.

Critics express concern that this arrangement could politicize technical assessments involving critical areas such as cybersecurity and bioweapons. There are fears that findings could be altered or muted to favor the interests of the technology industry.

The center, which receives an annual budget of $10 million, has also experienced leadership instability, including a director who was hired and fired within days in April, and a subsequent replacement who resigned after several months. The organization has also ceased publishing certain research on AI safety.
