Newsom was led by a joint California policy working group on AI frontier models. This week, the group asked lawmakers involved in writing the law to consider:
-Requires AI companies to disclose their risks and vulnerabilities.
– Establish an independent third party to evaluate the model.
– Provides whistleblower protection.
– and assess the need for a system to notify the government of harmful AI models.
Last fall, Newsom signed 18 bills addressing a variety of concerns about AI. Some of these bills protected children and adults from sexual exploitation. Others requested healthcare providers to disclose whether they were using AI to generate clinical information.
Some of the bills rejected by Newsom were about AI systems used in employment and self-driving cars.
