WASHINGTON (AP) — A proposal to deter states from regulating artificial intelligence for a decade was soundly defeated in the U.S. Senate on Tuesday, thwarting attempts to insert the measure into President Donald Trump’s big bill of tax breaks and spending cuts.

The Senate voted 99-1 to strike the AI provision from the legislation after weeks of criticism from both Republican and Democratic governors and state officials.

The fact that Mike fucking Lee (UT) voted to remove this speaks volumes.

Lee is still a massive chode, but even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Likely a case of what lobby has him deeper inside their pockets. Such a bill would threaten the entire entertainment industry and more.

Why would it be a threat to the entertainment industry? I thought they were all excited about being able to cut costs with AI.
