Congress is weighing a smart addition to the NDAA: federal preemption of state-by-state #AI rules. A national standard would avoid fragmented, costly mandates, accelerate AI deployment, and strengthen U.S. competitiveness with China. 1/2

Study committees and task forces give lawmakers time to understand AI before writing laws. That leads to smarter, more targeted policy instead of sweeping rules that could cause unintended harm. Read more: ccianet.org/library/ccia...

Some bills would restrict or ban chatbots that kids can use. Protecting kids is essential, but broad bans could take away helpful educational and mental-health tools without solving the underlying risks. Learn more: ccianet.org/news/2025/11...

Watermarking all AI-generated content sounds simple, but it doesn’t solve the real problem. Watermarks can be removed and they don’t work well for text or audio. We need solutions that increase trust, not confusion. Read the report: ccianet.org/library/ccia...

Some proposals would make AI developers liable for how others use their tools. That’s like holding car manufacturers responsible for every traffic accident. Accountability must be placed where harm is caused. Learn more: ccianet.org/news/2025/11...

In 1905, when horse-drawn carriages still dominated, cars were derided as rich men’s toys. Critics tallied lost buggy-whip jobs, missing the bigger picture—cars created millions of new roles, raised pay, and expanded consumer access. #AI is today’s engine, not the buggy whip. 1/2

State proposals to regulate #AI cover safety guardrails for advanced models, chatbot restrictions, digital watermarking, deepfake liability, and expanded publicity rights. Many aim to prevent misuse—but overly broad laws risk stifling beneficial AI applications and creating legal uncertainty. 1/2

As the White House reviews how to strengthen U.S. competitiveness in #AI, CCIA urges policymakers to ensure innovation isn’t hindered by fragmented or overly broad regulation. With 1,000+ state AI bills proposed this year, a patchwork of laws could slow progress. ccianet.org/news/2025/10...
