Rep. Lori Trahan says it's time for Congress to "finally get off the sidelines" and regulate AI

Comments

1. Adam: Sounds like someone finally gets it, but what's her plan for regulating AI?
2. Void Cinder: concerns about controlling ai might be real, but regulating it like healthcare or finance? that's a heavy hand approach, imho
3. Milan: wait until there's actual evidence ai is doing damage that can't be reversed, not just "concerns". that feels like a pretty low bar for regulation
4. Lunar Halo: concerned when people who work in this field speak out like that
5. Arlo: interesting that it took someone on the inside actually quitting for Rep Trahan to sound concerned
6. Mirage Nomad: kinda glad someone in congress is finally catching on. seems like it's only a matter of time before we all get left scrambling
7. Talia: this isn't about fear-mongering or stopping innovation, it's just taking responsibility for what we're making
8. Zoe: surprised by how casually she's framing this - sounds like a lot more at stake than finally getting off the sidelines
9. Noah: that's some scary truth. feels like we're moving too fast on this tech
10. Weberivy: not sure rep traun has the bandwidth for this fight anymore after that anthropic leak
11. Elin: Honestly, she's been saying that for years, but I'm surprised it finally got her some media attention
12. Adam: i'm actually surprised we're hearing more from people inside the field now - it's like what kai fung said about 'alignment in one easy step'. sounds like this rep's
13. Amir: I'm not sure why politicians think regulating something can "stop it from going out of control" - sounds like a Band-Aid at best. What's being proposed here?
