What this bill would do
The Open-Source AI Leadership Act directs the Secretary of Commerce to support the use of American open artificial intelligence models. To achieve this, the Secretary can designate points of contact, remove barriers, and enter into agreements with private entities, agencies, or foreign partners. The bill also requires the Secretary to identify and publicly report on risks associated with foreign adversary models. These risks include threats to personal information, supply chain security, and national security. A report comparing foreign models to qualified open models must be published annually. This reporting requirement is set to end 10 years after the Act's enactment.
