The Information sees Wiener’s AI law as a possible signal for Congress.
The Information links Wiener’s election to his work on AI-safety legislation in California. He led the effort to pass SB 53 last year, and Gov. Gavin Newsom signed it. The law requires the largest AI companies to write and comply with their own safety policies for managing severe risks from their technology. The report says the law, together with the AI companies that supported it, could signal the kind of AI policies a Democrat-controlled Congress may support.
