Paul Scharre and I write in TIME about Washington's unique dilemma for AI regulation: how to secure America's position as the global AI leader, while protecting Americans from AI’s possible risks? Although any country seeking to regulate AI must balance regulation and innovation, this task is especially hard for the United States because we arguably have more to lose. U.S. firms dominate AI, propelled by our uniquely open innovation ecosystem. And if AI proves the game-changer that many expect, surrendering U.S. leadership is not an option. But neither is leaving the technology completely unregulated, as Washington did with social media. Striking this regulatory balance won't be easy, and as Congress considers AI legislation, we offer four broad lessons. https://lnkd.in/eEVNP5Ne

A new era in US AI policy could be approaching. President-elect Donald Trump is expected to repeal Biden’s AI executive order and favor minimal regulations. This shift could impact everything from innovation to industry compliance.

🇪🇺 The European Parliament Approves Groundbreaking AI Act 🤖 The AI Act passed with an overwhelming majority of 523 votes in favor, 46 against, and 49 abstentions. In this Act, AI systems will be categorized into four risk levels, with high-risk systems subject to stringent rules before entering the EU market. Some organizations express concerns about the potential impact of the AI Act on European companies' competitiveness. With the global AI market expected to reach $1.5 trillion by 2030, striking the right balance between innovation and regulation is crucial. What's your take on this new AI Act? What improvements are you looking forward to with this? #aiact #EULaw #AiRegulation #EuropeanTech #EuropeanParliament Read more here 👉🏻 https://bit.ly/3TzrQoS

If you were holding your breath for federal AI regulation - don't. Senator Warner of Virginia stated that everyone agrees regulations are necessary but "They all say they want regulation until you put words on a page.” He also references trying to find a middle ground between the EU AI Act and doing nothing: “I am deeply engaged with a lot of these companies. I’m saying, ‘You guys have got to be for something.’ Now, do you do what the Europeans have overdone? We’ve done nothing. There is somewhere in the middle [for], I think, smart regulation." Accordingly, I believe we are likely to see the patchwork state-by-state regulation of AI continue for the foreseeable future. https://lnkd.in/eVZwJ8-p
