New York passes a bill to prevent AI disasters

New York State legislators passed a bill On Thursday intending to prevent Frontier Ai models from Openi, Google, and anthropic from over 100 people, or more than $ 1 billion damage.

The rise in the work represents a victory for AI safety movement, with Lost Land in recent years Silicon Valley and the Trump administration has initial speed and innovation. Salvation advocates including the Nobel Laureate Geoffrey Hinton and AI Research Pioneer Yoshua Bengo highlight increasing work. If this law has been done, the bill will build the first set of legal ruled transparency patterns for Frontier Ai lab labs.

The increase in work has the same provisions and objectives as California AII controversial Bill, SB 1047, that at last Heating. However, the law co-sponsor, New York Stepates Senator Andreat Gounardes, speaks to TechCrunch in an interview that it does not chill in SB 1047.

“The window to put on the guards rapidly shrinks how easy it is to grow in this technology,” as the Senator Gentlemen. “The people who know (AI) the best say that these risks can never be (…) alarmed.”

The rise of work today to New York Governor Kathy Hochul’s desk, where he can sign the bill, send it for changes, or to get to everyone.

If the law is signed, New York safety should require the largest AI labs in the world to publish the security reports ahead and security of their united AI models. The bill also requires AI Labs to report safety incidents, such as AI’s behavior or bad actors who steal a AI model, it should happen. If tech companies fail to follow these standards, the increase in New York’s lawyer’s work with $ 30 million.

The increase in the work refers to regulate the world’s largest company – if they are based in California (such as OpenI and Google) or China (such as Dereseeek and Alibaba). The bill’s transparency requirements available to companies trained AI models using over $ 100 million in any AI model now), and made by AI residents today.

While similar to SB 1047 in some ways, increases in acts are designed to meet the participation of AI models of AI models

However, Silicon Valley stopped returning to New York safety, New York State Assembly and co-sponsorship increase in Alex Boress still. The industrial resistant resistant resistant is called, but claim that the increase in the work does not limit the variety of tech companies in any way.

“The NY Rourd Act is another stupid, stupid level AI Bill who only hurts the US at the time our enemies are first,” as Andreessen Horowitz General Partner Anjney Midha in a Friday Posts X. Andreessen Horowitz and Startup Incubator y Commendinator is some of the most fierce opponents on SB 1047.

Antropic, exactly focused on AI Lab Called for Federal Transparency StaNDards for AI Companies Last month, did not reach an official bill of bill, co-founder Jack Clark said to a Friday Posts X. However Clark declares Clark in some sorrows on how broad rise in force, knowing it can be the risk of “small companies.”

When asked about anthropic criticism, the centropic tech’s sentrand tech is told that it “missed the score,” which he was designed to design the bill not available to smaller companies.

Openi, Google, and Meta did not respond to the techcrunch request for comment.

Another common criticism of the increase in the work is that model developers do not offer their most advanced AI models in New York. That is a similar criticism brought against SB 1047, and it’s mostly what Europe is playing thanks to the strong regulations of the continent.

Assemblymember the TechCrunch is said that the sold sold in redulations of motions, and therefore, it is not necessary to operate products in New York. Due to the fact that New York has a third largest GDP in the US, state exit is not something more powerful companies.

“I don’t want to underestimate political hardness to happen, but I’m confident that there is no economical cause of (AI companies) not to use their New York models.”
