With other lawmaking thin on the ground, Sen. Gary Peters is quietly pushing an idea: On AI, the government should start by regulating itself.
Because Sen. Gary Peters has a reputation as an inside operator skilled at getting his priorities into bigger bills, his moves are attracting the attention of the tech industry. | Francis Chung/POLITICOThe abrupt rise of generative artificial intelligence has kicked off a flurry of action on Capitol Hill, with Senate Majority Leaderleading the charge through his sweeping proposal to regulate all aspects of the AI landscape.
His bills focus exclusively on the federal government, setting rules for AI training, transparency and how agencies buy AI-driven systems. Though narrower than the plans of Schumer and others, they also face less friction and uncertainty — and may offer the simplest way for Congress to shape the emerging industry, particularly when it’s not clear what other leverage Washington has.
Not all of Peters’ ideas are new ones, and the track record of his previous efforts suggests they may take longer than expected to have an effect. But because Peters has a reputation as an inside operator skilled at getting his priorities into bigger bills, his moves are attracting the attention of the tech industry.
