Summary

Sen. Todd Young (R-IN) recently discussed Leader Schumer’s efforts to craft new AI laws in the Senate on a POLITICO Tech podcast, where he stated that he does not anticipate the enactment of sweeping AI legislation. Instead, he projected that the chamber will move to equip federal agencies with the staff and resources needed to implement existing laws, stating, “Many of these laws we have merely need to be applied to current and to future circumstances. That’s going to require ongoing vigilance from the agencies.”
