California State Senator Scott Wiener, the author of SB 1047, has introduced a new AI bill in California. This move comes after Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed SB 1047 in September 2024, citing concerns over the bill's regulatory framework.
The new bill aims to address some of the concerns raised by the governor and other stakeholders. While the details of the new bill are not yet publicly available, it's likely to focus on improving AI safety and regulation in California.
SB 1047, also known as the Safe and Secure Innovation for Frontier Artificial Intelligence Models Act, aimed to impose safety restrictions and requirements on advanced AI models. The bill applied to AI developers who offered their services in California and defined "covered models" as large, powerful models that met specific computing power and cost thresholds.
The introduction of the new bill highlights the ongoing efforts to regulate AI in California and address concerns around AI safety and responsibility.
