At a congressional hearing senators from both parties and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said a new federal agency was needed to protect people from AI gone bad.
IBM’s Montgomery yesterday urged Congress to take inspiration from the AI Act, which categorizes AI systems by the risks they pose to people or society and sets rules for—or even bans—them accordingly. She also endorsed the idea of encouraging self regulation, highlighting her position on IBM’s AI ethics board, although at Google andTech think tank the Center for Data Innovation said in a letter released after yesterday’s hearing that the US doesn’t need a new regulator for AI.
“I don’t think it’s pragmatic, and it’s not what they should be thinking about right now,” says Hodan Omaar, a senior analyst at the CDI. Omaar says the idea of booting up a whole new agency for AI is improbable given that Congress has yet to follow through on other necessary tech reforms like the need for overarching data privacy protections. She believes it is better to update existing laws and allow federal agencies to add AI oversight to their existing regulatory work.
Alex Engler, a fellow at the Brookings Institution, says he’s concerned that the US could repeat problems that. The historic bill was scuppered by California lawmakers withholding their votes because the law would override the state’s own privacy legislation. “That’s a good enough concern,” Engler says. “Now is that a good enough concern that you're gonna say we're just not going to have civil society protections for AI? I don't know about that.
Though the hearing touched on potential harms of AI ranging from election disinformation to conceptual dangers that don’t exist yet, generative AI systems like ChatGPT that inspired the hearing taking place got the most attention. Multiple senators argued they could increase inequality and monopolization.
