From Sacramento to Silicon Valley: California takes on AI

California is aiming to set the standard for reining in the swiftly growing AI industry that has largely developed within the state’s own borders. Dozens of bills are currently working their way through the state legislature to set rules for everything from deepfakes, to preserving jobs for workers, to the very definition of artificial intelligence.

Against this backdrop, and the RSA cyber conference in San Francisco, POLITICO’s Jeremy White will sit with State Senator Scott Wiener, one of the key lawmakers behind California’s AI bills, to discuss the state’s role in regulation - and how it could set the tone for policies nationwide.
