WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The White House said on Friday that Congress should \u201cpreempt state AI laws\u201d that it views as too burdensome<\/span>, laying out a broad framework for how it wants Congress to address concerns about artificial intelligence without curbing growth or innovation in the sector. <\/p>\n

The legislative blueprint outlines a half-dozen guiding principles for lawmakers, focusing on protecting children, preventing electricity costs from surging<\/span>, respecting intellectual property rights, preventing censorship and educating Americans on using the technology.<\/p>\n

House Republican leaders swiftly endorsed the framework and said they\u2019re ready to work \u201cacross the aisle\u201d to pass legislation, but doing so would be a heavy lift, requiring agreement with Democrats in the Senate as public divisions over AI run deep.<\/p>\n

The announcement comes as state governments have forged ahead on their own regulations for AI while civil liberties and consumer rights groups lobby for more regulations on the powerful technology. The industry and the White House have pushed back, arguing that a patchwork of rules would hurt growth. Trump signed an executive order in December<\/span> to block states from crafting their own regulations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was in response to a growing patchwork of 50 different state regulatory regimes that threaten to stifle innovation and jeopardize America\u2019s lead in the AI race,\u201d said White House AI czar David Sacks in a social media post Friday.<\/p>\n

Sacks said the next step is to work with Congress to turn the administration\u2019s principles into federal legislation.<\/p>\n
