The California Legislature passed a bill (SB 1047) that could become the national standard for regulating artificial intelligence. The measure would require AI companies that spend more than $100 million on training an AI model or over $10 million on modifying one to test whether those models could cause mass casualties or major property damage before releasing them to the public. It would also allow the state’s attorney general to sue AI developers for serious harms caused by their systems. But Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) hasn’t indicated whether or not he supports the legislation, and the tech industry has been strongly pressuring him to veto it. (NEW YORK TIMES, CALMATTERS, LEXISNEXIS STATE NET)
Brazil blocked access to Elon Musk’s social network X nationwide after Musk and X defied requests from the country’s Federal Supreme Court to take down accounts or posts it said violated Brazilian laws against misinformation and hate speech online. Brazilian authorities have blocked access to online services, including the messaging app Telegram, for ignoring court orders before. Such blocks have typically lasted only a few days before the targeted company complied. (CNBC, NEW YORK TIMES)
