WASHINGTON, DC – Today, The Tech Oversight Project issued the following statement on the continued AI moratorium language.
“At a time when new details emerge every day about Big Tech’s untested AI assistants and chatbots causing harm to people, especially kids, Congress should be encouraging more oversight, not AI amnesty. This terrible deal all but ensures kids will not be protected online. If Republicans were truly serious about holding Google, Meta, OpenAI, and other tech giants accountable, they wouldn’t be trying to grant yet another giveaway to Big Tech,” said Sacha Haworth, Executive Director of The Tech Oversight Project. “Let’s be clear: Big Tech’s so-called ‘national strategy’ means no strategy whatsoever – tech companies don’t want to follow any rules, and Congress is willingly playing along.”
