AI Policy and Procurement

The White House’s Office of Management and Budget issued guidance on Dec. 11, 2025 directing federal agencies to ensure AI systems they procure meet two 'unbiased AI' principles: 'truth-seeking' and 'ideological neutrality.' The memo, called for by a July Trump executive order, applies to LLMs and other generative AI, advises agencies to tailor information requests by vendors’ proximity to model developers, and says national security systems are exempt but encouraged to follow the guidance.
