    4. On August 28, a contentious California artificial intelligence bill was passed, compelling companies to implement new safety measures including an emergency stop button.

    Core of the New Bill

    The Safe and Secure Innovation for Frontier Artificial Intelligence Models Act (SB 1047) passed the California Senate 29–9 and is now sent for ratification to Governor Gavin Newsom. The new law mandates companies to implement safety protocols, including an emergency stop button for AI models.

    Industry Leaders' Opinions

    Elon Musk expressed support for the bill, favoring safety measures for AI. Meanwhile, figures like OpenAI Chief Strategy Officer Jason Kwon and Masa co-founder Calanthia Mei criticize the new regulation.

    Future of AI Regulation

    Critics argue that the new law could hinder tech development in the US, while proponents like DecideAI CEO Raheel Govindji suggest democratizing control through a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Govindji believes a DAO could manage the emergency stop process effectively. Supporting the bill, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei voiced support in a letter to Governor Newsom.

    The future of AI regulation in the US remains uncertain as industry opinions are deeply divided. The SB 1047 bill might set a precedent for other states, leading to new approaches and solutions in AI safety.
