Commanders, directors, and heads of agencies shall remain responsible and accountable for ensuring that these obligations are met at every level of command.

Nothing in this section shall be construed to authorize the creation of a mandatory governmental licensing, preclearance, or permitting requirement for the development, publication, release, or distribution of new AI models, including frontier models...

States should not be permitted to penalize AI developers for a third party’s unlawful conduct involving their models.
