Conversations focused on AI at work, in finance and insurance, and in healthcare on Tuesday.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Florida lawmakers are debating whether to regulate artificial intelligence as the technology becomes more prevalent in loan decisions, insurance pricing, and healthcare services. This week, most House committees are discussing artificial intelligence and how it affects people’s lives.
Conversations focused on AI at work, in finance and insurance, and in healthcare on Tuesday. Bills moving in the legislature would limit AI for things like therapy. “A bot cannot feel emotion. A bot can’t be empathetic. A bot can’t sense human nature, not like a human being can. Those are critical circumstances,” said Senate President Ben Albritton. Governor Ron DeSantis wants the legislature to pass an AI bill of rights during the upcoming legislative session. The idea is to put safeguards in place to protect consumers and the environment. “This is not partisan stuff. It doesn’t matter if you’re republican or democrat, I don’t think anyone would want to see the stuff that’s happening,” DeSantis said.AI regulation is getting mixed reviews. President Donald Trump posted on social media this week that states should leave AI regulation to the federal government, announcing plans to sign an executive order that would stop states like Florida in their tracks. “I mean, if AI can help us defend this country more readily and more efficiently, I’m all in. So globally, I think the president has a great perspective on it,” Albritton said.“If each state starts regulating AI individually, we’re going to wind up with a patchwork nationally, and it could stifle the potential growth and transformational impact of this technology,” Driskell said.Georgia state representative arrested, indicted on pandemic unemployment fraud chargesMiss Universe contestant remains in ICU after falling off stage during evening gown competition
