The Responsible Artificial Intelligence Safety and Education (RAISE) Act would require large AI developers to create and publicize safety plans and make tech-sharing impossible.
Veto the RAISE act, governor, and stick to your guns: Shaping the regulatory future of AI is a job for national lawmakers.Even though Congress has punted on any national rules to regulate Artificial Intelligence development, Gov.
Kathy Hochul should still veto the bill now on her desk for New York-only regulation.to lose the race with China to set the global standards for AI if US developers have to cope with 50 different sets of contradictory regulation — and the nation would pay a huge long-term economic price for that loss. Hochul herself flagged that point months ago on Bloomberg TV: “People prefer to have a federal regulation,” as “it’s hard when one state has a set of rules, another state does, another state. I don’t think that’s a model for inspiring innovation.” Beyond that, the bill passed by New York legislators, The Responsible Artificial Intelligence Safety and Education Act, contains some terrible provisions designed to boostto make their designs open-source, allowing others to build on their tech so American software can become the global standard.programmer uses such open-source code; that’s tantamount to banning US open-source work — even though US lawyers will haveThe RAISE Act only allows the state attorney general to sue — but it’s sure to be followed soon enough by bills to let private parties “seek justice.” Similar innovation-crushing provisions are already part of the Transparency in Frontier AI Act that California passed last month; having New York second the trend is beyond ominous. At the very least, it’s going to push cutting-edge tech companies to states like Texas and Florida, whose laws are likely to be far more innovation-friendly: On top of New York’s high taxes and energy costs, lawsuit-friendly laws will make the Empire State aBut American tech companies can’t be strangled, either, as the New York bill would do: It even tries to setregulatory standards — anyone who wants to do business in New York will have to abide by them: Another way to send more companies running full-speed from the Empire State.Above all else, most folks who win New York state legislative races are terrible candidates when it comes to grasping the issues involved in cutting-edge tech; how can they possibly craft sensible policy that protects consumers while allowing innovation?
