Funding for the research hubs will come from the National Science Foundation and will bring the total number of AI research institutes to 25 across the country.

As AI becomes more ubiquitous, the White House Thursday promised it would release guidelines for use by government agencies. AI developers are also expected to agree to have their products reviewed at the upcoming DEF CON cybersecurity conference in August.

Funding for the proposed research hubs will come from the National Science Foundation and will bring the total number of AI research institutes to 25 across the country. Artificial intelligence has already begun to disrupt everyday life with a deluge of fake images and videos and robot-penned text, prompting concerns ranging from national security to misinformation. The influence is being felt in American politics, as well: Republicans last week released an AI-generated video in response to President Joe Biden's reelection bid.

The White House has made addressing AI a priority. Last year the administration released a "Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights" and later outlined the creation of a National AI Research Resource. In February Biden signed an executive order aimed to prevent bias and discrimination in the technologies from their inception.
