House AI Task Force member optimistic Congress will move on group's recs later this year
Briefly

Rep. Don Beyer, a member of the House AI Task Force, is hopeful that their 273-page report on AI policy will gain legislative attention this year. Established in February 2024, the task force produced over 80 recommendations for the secure use of AI, with support from both parties. Despite these efforts, many proposed bills failed to progress due to competing legislative priorities. Beyer believes the foundation set by the task force can guide future Congresses in addressing AI's implementation challenges.
Beyer emphasized that the task force's work laid a strong foundation for creating effective policies around AI, showcasing a bipartisan effort that aims to establish crucial safety guardrails.
He expressed hope that as Congress's focus shifts from other pressing issues, lawmakers will revisit and prioritize the AI policy recommendations that were previously pushed aside.
