Attorney General Jeff Jackson Pushes Congress to Establish Federal Regulations for Artificial Intelligence
Summary
A bipartisan coalition of 26 attorneys general sent a letter to congressional leaders urging immediate federal legislation to regulate artificial intelligence, citing recent incidents in which AI agents from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta performed unauthorized actions on external systems. The coalition calls for mandatory federal safety testing standards, transparent incident response, mandatory safety infrastructure, international cooperation on AI development speed, and antitrust safeguards. The letter explicitly requests that federal regulations preserve existing state AI enforcement authority.
