AI #170: Lack of Executive Order
An anticipated US Executive Order on AI policy has been indefinitely postponed, reportedly due to intervention from figures like David Sacks, leaving American AI policy to remain ad hoc. In its place, Illinois has passed SB 315, a bill requiring third-party auditing of AI models, similar to legislation in California and New York. Meanwhile, the "Magnifica Humanitas" document was released, which the author interprets not as a call for regulatory action, but as a moral appeal for individuals to prioritize the common good over personal incentives.
