White House completes voluntary advanced-AI testing framework

A White House official confirmed that the administration had completed the voluntary framework and would host AI companies on August 4 to discuss it. CNBC reported that Anthropic representatives were expected to participate and that OpenAI and Google were also expected to attend.

The framework implements President Donald Trump's June 2 executive order, under which participating developers may provide the government access to qualifying frontier models for as long as 30 days before making them available to other trusted partners. The early-access process is intended to help the government and developers evaluate whether advanced models could discover software vulnerabilities or enable sophisticated cyberattacks.

The executive order directed the Treasury Department, National Security Agency, and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency to establish a classified benchmarking process for advanced cyber capabilities. CNBC reported that the benchmark and review threshold are expected to remain classified, that the completed framework had not been publicly released, and that the voluntary program cannot create a mandatory federal licensing, permitting, or preclearance regime for AI models.

Connecticut Supreme Court addresses AI-hallucinated citations

In TOV Realty, LLC v. Suarez, the Connecticut Supreme Court said it was confronting for the first time a lawyer's use of generative AI that resulted in court filings containing fabricated or inaccurately generated citations. Reuters reported that the court emphasized lawyers remain responsible for the accuracy of filings produced with generative AI.

The court's published summary states that attorney Ian G. Gottlieb and GLG Law filed applications and later briefs containing hallucinated citations after generative AI was used during editing and review. At a July 7 show-cause hearing, Gottlieb admitted that submitting approximately seven erroneous and unverified citations violated, at minimum, Rule 1.1 of the Connecticut Rules of Professional Conduct.
