A bipartisan effort is underway in the U.S. Congress to regulate and promote artificial intelligence (AI) across various sectors. Senator Amy Klobuchar and Senator John Thune have introduced a bill aimed at implementing safeguards for high-risk, non-defense AI applications and improving transparency, which has passed the Senate Commerce Committee. In Georgia, state senators are exploring AI regulations to protect privacy, ensure transparency, and address job displacement. The House Financial Services Committee recently held a hearing on AI applications in financial services and housing, focusing on enhancing these sectors while ensuring responsible deployment, particularly in combatting fraud. Additionally, Senator Rounds has introduced bipartisan legislation to promote AI innovation in financial services by providing a controlled environment for testing AI products. Representative Ritchie is collaborating with a bipartisan and bicameral group on legislation to encourage new AI technology in financial services while maintaining public protection regulations.
