Tame the Beast Now

Can New York be the state that shows how to rein in AI before it’s too late? State Assemblymember Alex Bores joins Bradley to talk about the Responsible AI Safety and Education (RAISE) Act, a bill he's co-sponsoring to establish safety, audit, and whistleblower guardrails for companies training advanced AI models. Without smart, tough regulation, Bores argues, even well-intentioned tech can be weaponized. From job loss to bioweapons and deepfakes, Bores warns that these problems are not theoretical, they are on our doorstep.New Yorkers: Tell your state legislators to Support the RAISE Act at bit.ly/responsibleAIemailLearn about critical AI safety legislation at the state level endorsed by Encode and Secure AI Project in CA, NY, and IL: bit.ly/supportraiseny This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City’s only free podcast recording studio.Send us an email with your thoughts on today’s episode: [email protected] to Bradley's weekly newsletter and follow Bradley on Linkedin + Substack + YouTube.
