## Summary

The US federal government plans to publish later this month a guide to the laws and regulations that apply to domestic AI labs. Pentagon Chief Technology Officer Emil Michael said the effort is intended to build public confidence in AI companies and clarify the rules as the sector grows.

Michael said the government’s Super Intelligence Task Force would outline the regulatory landscape within “the next week or two”. He gave no further details at a technology conference in California, but warned that without a clear framework, Congress could produce regulation that harms the industry.
