US Government Requires Notification for Companies Training Large Language Models

The US government is implementing new requirements for companies training large language models. According to US Secretary of Commerce Gina Raymondo, companies will be required to share information and safety data every time they train a new large language model. This move is authorized under the Defense Production Act. The government is also planning to require US cloud companies to disclose when non-US entities are using their cloud services to train large language models.
