House Representatives Jamie Raskin and Robert Garcia have requested that the White House release records of President Donald Trump’s interactions with AI chatbots. The lawmakers argue these prompts and responses should be classified as public records under the 1978 Presidential Records Act, specifically citing reports that Trump consulted xAI’s Grok regarding military operations in Venezuela.
The representatives have requested a closed-door briefing by November 11 to review administration AI protocols and cybersecurity safeguards.
