Scope and limitsThe heading continues with a figure that the PDF text layer renders as “1026” before “or more ‘operations’”, read as 10^26 operations; the quote stops before it. Notes 1 and 2 to 4E091 exclude published weights, models derived from them with no more than 2.5 × 10^25 additional operations or 25 percent (whichever is higher), and models trained with fewer operations than needed to match the most advanced published model. What the instrument’s text states, from the expression read. A cell records what the text requires of the parties it defines: not whether any developer falls within them, or complied.

Archive copy: Open archived copy, captured 2025-01-15: Framework for Artificial Intelligence Diffusion (interim final rule, 90 FR 4544). Captured on the recorded publication date. An archive copy shows only what the archive retrieved on 2025-01-15. It does not prove what the page said earlier, and it can differ from the copy checked on 2026-10-27.

Reuse: No open redistribution licence asserted. Bibliographic metadata, editorial paraphrases and short attributed quotations (at most 50 words each). Recheck terms before wider redistribution.
Check notes: Candidate pack passage, laws compared (research/laws-compared), cell us-bis-ifr:Q02. The quotation (9 words) matched the text retrieved for the candidate pack on 2026-11-01 (SHA-256 0ec0f7fc1016b9654ea0559819e821d1baee1814efe1e0048a10d5df9230f86c) and again in fresh retrievals on 2026-11-02 and 2026-11-04. Matching ignored differences of whitespace, case, quotation marks, dashes, PDF line-break hyphens and Unicode compatibility forms, so the source’s typography can differ. A cross-family machine check (2026-11-02, item 76) answered this cell blind and agreed with the pack. No human editorial review.

Status and meaning

Editorial status. Machine-checked. Machines found this record and checked it against its sources; no person accepted it individually. Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.

Relation. An exact framework edition, or another document with an exact expression, states one provision: a capability threshold or risk level and its trigger, a required safeguard or action, a decision authority (who decides, recommends, can overrule or is informed), a stated exception, or another statement of its content, such as a licence term or a prospectus statement. The passage records what the document says, not implementation, compliance or effectiveness. Provisions with the same key align across editions of one family.

Date. Dated as the text compared is dated: the date of issue of its version, “Interim final rule as published in the Federal Register (15 January 2025)”.
