Anthropic proposes law regulating AI to US lawmakers

Anthropic, the creator of the AI assistant Claude, has proposed a draft bill aimed at regulating artificial intelligence to U.S. lawmakers. The bill would allow Washington to block a model's release or use if there is an imminent risk of killing or seriously injuring more than 50 people, or causing more than $1 billion in damages, with a judge's approval.

The company's spokesperson stated that the proposal would grant the federal government the ability to block or deter dangerous deployments of the most powerful models, requiring developers to test and transparently evaluate their models, submit them to independent evaluation, and maintain a robust security program.
