US White House, Congress eye deal to limit AI regulation for speech curbs

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

The White House and Congress are reportedly negotiating a legislative package that would limit states' ability to regulate AI in exchange for broad federal restrictions on digital speech. This deal, framed by the Trump administration as a safety measure, involves trading federal censorship bills like the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) and the NO FAKES Act for the surrender of state-level AI oversight. Critics, including the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE), argue these bills would create a massive censorship regime and grant the federal government excessive power over online content, potentially impacting platforms like Meta and limiting anonymous internet use.
