Government Regulation of AI and the Defense Production Act
This chapter discusses the Defense Production Act and its impact on AI regulation, including the broad powers it gives the US government to require companies to meet certain criteria in the interest of national security. The chapter also explores the potential benefits of government regulation in the AI field, such as incentivizing companies to find more creative ways to improve models and train them with less data. Additionally, it raises questions about determining the threshold for regulation and the need for standards, tools, and tests to ensure the safety, security, and trustworthiness of AI systems.
