Importance of Educating Founders on AI Regulation
One of the goals of the advocacy organization, Engine, is to educate founders about the regulatory landscape in Washington and how it may impact them. Startups working in AI and other fields deserve a seat at the table when it comes to shaping legislation. While there are prominent companies like OpenAI and Anthropic in the AI space, smaller startups also bring unique perspectives and innovations that should be considered.
