The Slow Evolution of AI Policy

AI policy is currently experiencing a slower evolution compared to the rapid advancements in AI technology. While public conversations around AI legislation have intensified, actual policy-making often takes years to draft and implement. This discrepancy creates challenges for AI companies, which must navigate a patchwork of state laws that can vary widely, leading to unequal protections for users. The recently passed EU AI Act and President Biden's executive order exemplify the increasing focus on AI regulation, yet the broader implications of these developments remain uncertain.
