New York State Assemblyman Alex Bores is the initiator of the groundbreaking AI safety bill, the "RAISE Act," and he has explored the intense lobbying battles surrounding the bill. The bill is seen as a nationwide blueprint. Due to support from regulatory advocates with opposing super PACs and the $20 million investment from Anthropic, the debate highlights whether artificial intelligence will be regulated like finance or remain largely unrestrained like social media. Bores's office is preparing further legislation on training data and the national AI framework.
