Elon Musk Backs California’s AI Bill

Elon Musk has come out in support of California’s SB 1047, a bill that requires makers of very large AI models to create and document safeguards against those models causing serious harm

“This is a tough call and will upset some people, but, all things considered, I think California should probably pass the SB 1047 AI safety bill,” he wrote on Monday afternoon. “For over 20 years, I have advocated for AI regulation, just as we regulate any product/technology that is a potential risk.”

Musk — whose own large AI model company, xAI, would be subject to SB 1047’s requirements despite his pledge to leave California — has warned of the dangers of runaway AI.

Meanwhile, rival outfit OpenAI recently announced it opposes the bill and supports an alternative one.
