Governor Gavin Newsom's veto of a landmark AI safety bill, opposed by tech companies, raises concerns about government oversight and innovation in California.
Senator Scott Wiener emphasized that the governor's veto allows powerful AI technologies to develop without any regulatory framework, potentially risking safety and oversight.
The vetoed legislation aimed to implement safety testing for advanced AI models and required measures like a 'kill switch' to manage risks effectively.
Newsom argued that the bill imposed excessive standards on basic AI functions, failing to recognize high-risk contexts where such technology is deployed.
