California Governor Gavin Newsom vetoed a controversial AI safety bill, SB 1047, that aimed to set a regulatory framework for AI across the U.S. He acknowledged the bill’s good intentions but criticized it for not differentiating between high- and low-risk AI applications and for targeting only the largest, costliest models. The bill faced opposition from tech companies concerned about stifling innovation. Newsom is now working with researchers, including Fei-Fei Li, to develop more effective AI legislation.
