States take the lead as laboratories for AI regulation
This past September, California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed SB 53, the Transparency in Frontier Artificial Intelligence Act, a first-in-the-nation law whose aim is to promote artificial intelligence innovation while protecting public safety by ensuring AI models are safe and secure, trustworthy and transparent.
Republican State Senator Bo Watson of the Tennessee Legislature said state lawmakers welcome any assistance technology experts can offer about fast-evolving AI innovation.
