Two unlikely states are leading the charge on regulating AI
- Colorado and Connecticut proposed pioneering bills aimed at regulating AI, focusing on preventing discrimination in crucial sectors like healthcare, employment, and housing.
- Connecticut’s initiative collapsed due to a veto threat from Governor Ned Lamont, concerned about potential stifling of the industry.
- The tech lobby is pressuring Colorado’s governor to reject a similar bill, arguing against a state-by-state approach to AI regulation, while lawmakers nationwide monitor the outcome.
