Update
What changedThe Register names Google, Anthropic, Meta, OpenAI, NVIDIA and xAI among the six companies whose executives signed the voluntary AI safety agreement with the Trump administration. The earlier account did not identify the firms.
The Register says the commitments leave companies responsible for setting their own safety and auditing rules, with provisions including internal monitoring, board-level oversight and external audits. It describes the agreement as non-binding, so the reported commitments do not amount to a requirement that firms follow those measures.
The article also reports that Trump opposes new federal AI-specific regulation, favouring self-regulation. That adds a clearer policy contrast to the pledge: the named firms are making commitments, but the account does not describe an enforceable standard or an independent compliance mechanism.
