Description

This executive order establishes a new policy for the federal government's procurement of large language models (LLMs) and other AI systems. The order's stated purpose is to prevent ideological biases, with a specific focus on "diversity, equity, and inclusion" (DEI), from distorting the accuracy and truthfulness of AI outputs.

To address this, the order establishes two "Unbiased AI Principles" that all AI procured by federal agencies must follow:

• Truth-seeking: LLMs must be truthful and prioritize historical accuracy, scientific inquiry, and objectivity when responding to factual prompts.
• Ideological Neutrality: LLMs must be nonpartisan tools that do not manipulate responses to favor ideological dogmas like DEI unless explicitly prompted by the user.
