Senate unveils $32 billion roadmap for regulating AI
The roadmap directs Senate committees on legislation.
Adobe general counsel and chief trust officer Dana Rao, who attended the AI Insight Forums, said in a statement that the policy roadmap is an encouraging start as it will be “important for governments to provide protections across the wider creative ecosystem, including for visual artists and their concerns about style.” Amba Kak, co-executive director of AI Now, a policy research group supported by groups like Open Society Foundations, Omidyar Network, and Mozilla, released a statement following the report saying its “long list of proposals are no substitute for enforceable law.” Kak also took issue with the big taxpayer price tag on the proposal, saying it “risks further consolidating power back in AI infrastructure providers and replicating industry incentives — we’ll be looking for assurances to prevent this from taking place.” Divyansh Kaushik, vice president at national security advisory firm Beacon Global Strategies, said in a statement that “critical for the success of any legislative efforts” will be ensuring that the big price tag can actually be doled out to the agencies and initiatives that need to use those funds.
