On September 21, Politico reported that New York Governor Kathy Hochul is seeking to contrast herself with the federal government on artificial intelligence regulation. Hochul plans to announce on Monday the next steps in implementing the RAISE Act, a landmark AI safety legislation in New York State that will officially take effect in January next year. Meanwhile, she will also announce the first key personnel appointment for the office responsible for overseeing the implementation of the bill. Currently, there is growing concern about the potential severe consequences of the rapid development of AI technology. Some in Washington hope to implement restrictions to slow down AI development and strengthen protections, but President Trump has been trying to block these efforts, calling AI doomsday theories a 'hoax.' Trump stated over the weekend that he envisions a role for the federal government in monitoring potential dangers of AI, but specific plans remain unclear.
