Congress faces decision on AI regulation as big tech lobbies for influence

Jul, 06, 2023 Hi-network.com

Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer has launched a push for AI regulation, promising hearings and forums to gather expert input and eventually create draft legislation. However, lawmakers, many of whom lack technical expertise, must navigate the rapidly developing technology and conflicting opinions on AI regulations.

Silicon Valley-area representatives face a particular challenge as they support regulating tech companies while also representing districts where those companies are economic engines.

OpenAI, among other technology interests, has been lobbying for regulations that prevent AI from posing an existential threat to humanity. However, critics caution lawmakers to be sceptical of industry suggestions and to consider the interests behind them.

Congress will need to determine whether to work with tech interests or take the lead in regulating AI. While there is bipartisan support for regulation, the details and scope of such regulations are still being debated.
