Scoop: The small agency within the Commerce Department tasked with testing new AI models, CAISSI, is getting its long-awaited refresh. The Trump administration recently finalized a plan to have three senior CAISSI officials report directly to the White House to better streamline the agency, which has long been plagued by resource and access issues. However, there has been confusion between the White House and Commerce Department on the restructure, which a White House official told me demonstrates why CAISSI leadership needs to move. Lots of new details here, including the debate over how to manage CAISSI, its role in the White House's AI framework for testing AI models, and personnel changes
