11: Rep. Jay Obernolte and Rep. Kevin Mullin on the path forward for AI legislation, with Equal AI’s Miriam Vogel

As the U.S. Congress weighs legislation for artificial intelligence, we hear directly from two of the leading U.S. House members. Host Tammy Haddad interviews Rep. Jay Obernolte (R-CA-23), an expert computer scientist and vice chair of the House AI Caucus, and Rep. Kevin Mullin (D-CA-15), a member of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology representing Silicon Valley. Obernolte calls for watermarking authentic materials instead of AI-generated content, and they both share concerns for combating deep fakes and misinformation in elections, safeguarding Americans without stifling innovation, and protecting content creators, touching on the New York Times’ recent copyright infringement lawsuit against ChatGPT.
