The RAISE Act: Regulating Frontier AI | For Humanity | EP 71

In this episode of For Humanity, John speaks with New York Assemblymember Alex Bores, sponsor of the groundbreaking RAISE Act, one of the first state-level bills in the U.S. designed to regulate frontier AI systems.

They discuss:

* Why AI poses an existential risk, with researchers estimating up to a 10% chance of extinction.

* The political challenges of passing meaningful AI regulation at the state and federal level.

* How the RAISE Act could require safety plans, transparency, and limits on catastrophic risks.

* The looming jobs crisis as AI accelerates disruption across industries.

* Why politicians are only beginning to grapple with AI’s dangers — and why the public must speak up now.

This is a candid, urgent conversation about AI risk, regulation, and what it will take to secure humanity’s future.
