Fox News: American AI freedom still under threat from Biden’s leftover directives
Vice President JD Vance's call for reduced regulations on AI in Europe faces challenges from the Biden administration and the Future of Privacy Forum, which are pushing for new AI regulations in the U.S. Despite Trump's earlier efforts to promote innovation, states are introducing vague bills that could hinder startups.
The proposed regulations, framed as addressing "algorithmic harms," risk entrenching large tech firms while stifling smaller innovators. Critics argue that existing laws can handle genuine issues without creating new bureaucracies. The future of American AI leadership and innovation could be at stake if these regulatory measures continue.
