The bill directs the Secretary of Homeland Security to start at least two prize competitions within 270 days after enactment. One competition would support research on making artificial intelligence (AI) models easier for people to understand. The other would support AI models that can resist attacks that might cause incorrect, restricted, or harmful results in high-risk government or industry uses. The Secretary must consult with named federal officials and relevant AI experts when organizing the competitions. Within 180 days after the first competition ends, the Secretary must report to Congress on the results, research gaps, and possible next steps. The bill was introduced in the Senate and referred to committee.
The bill creates research competitions and does not set new requirements for individuals or businesses. Researchers and organizations could take part in competitions, depending on the rules the Secretary sets.
The bill authorizes $10 million for the Secretary to carry out its provisions for fiscal years 2026 through 2030.
