🧵 The NRC has been operating an illegal nuclear blockade for 50 years and a recent lawsuit might finally bring it to an end. Buckle up...

Will speak about AI in exchange for fancy Constitution (will settle for pocket-sized, too).

You all know I love occupational licensing reform, opposing age verification, AI, and niche regulatory policy. I'm putting it all together in one place. Please subscribe :) papercuts.substack.com Some will be for @abundanceinst but other work will be things that don't fit into what Abundance is doing It's all going to be very in-depth and on brand for me

Working to support @GovCox and his Operation Gigawatt Summit has been awesome. But, honestly, one of the best parts is getting to build alongside @nwalkingshaw and the team @torusrev Nate was one of the first people I met when we were thinking about launching the Abundance Institute in Utah. I remember walking him through what we were trying to do around this idea of abundance, building more, moving faster, and actually breaking constraints. And I walked away from that meeting thinking something pretty simple: I’m not working hard enough, my vision isn’t big enough, and if I want to be in the arena with people like this then I’ve got to level up. He’s a grinder. And that kind of energy does something to you. It raises your standard whether you want it to or not. That’s a big part of why I’m so excited about what the Operation Gigawatt Summit. And why it matters that Torus is involved. These are real builders working on real problems. Exactly the kind of people we need more of if we’re serious about actually achieving something worthwhile. Grateful to be working alongside them
Abundance Institute@abundanceinst

Thank you @torusrev for sponsoring the Operation Gigawatt Summit!

The White House just released its national AI framework. This thread is a brief review of state-level AI bills up for debate across the country this year by state, which highlights the need for a federal approach. If it seems like too much to review…try being a startup or even a large firm trying to do something good in the world while using artificial intelligence as a tool to do so. @abundanceinst

Today’s framework is not some random or standalone statement of principles. It’s President weighing in on active legislative debates and charting a path forward. It’s time to get to work.
Neil Chilson ⤴️⬆️🆙📈 🚀@neil_chilson

So you’re reading @WHOSTP47’s new National Policy Framework for AI and thinking: really? This is it? Three pages? Yes. That's it. And it’s incredibly substantive. Why? Because it wasn’t written in a vacuum. It was written in the middle of ongoing congressional negotiations. Each of the framework’s seven sections maps onto a live policy fight. So when the President takes a position in this document, he’s not just floating novel ideas. He’s signaling how he thinks those debates should be resolved. If you haven’t been following Congress closely (and honestly, who could blame you) that’s easy to miss. But nearly every line in this framework is doing work in a specific legislative debate. Don’t believe me? Here’s a quick and incomplete list of active congressional bills touching each of the framework’s seven buckets: I. Protecting Children and Empowering Parents - KOSA - COPPA 2.0 - KIDS Act - App Store Accountability Act - TAKE IT DOWN Act (already enacted) - GUARD Act - Invest in Child Safety Act II. Safeguarding and Strengthening American Communities - AI Fraud Accountability Act - AI for Main Street Act - Unleashing Low-Cost Rural AI Act - Advanced AI Security Readiness Act III. Respecting Intellectual Property Rights and Supporting Creators - NO FAKES Act - TRAIN Act - CLEAR Act IV. Preventing Censorship and Protecting Free Speech - Censorship Accountability Act - Restoring American Freedom Act - (Sen. Cruz reportedly has a pending anti-jawboning bill) V. Enabling Innovation and Ensuring American AI Dominance - SANDBOX Act - CREATE AI Act - AI Grand Challenges Act - TAME Extreme Weather and Wildfires Act - AI-Ready Bio-Data Standards Act VI. Educating Americans and Developing an AI-Ready Workforce - AI Workforce PREPARE Act - Workforce of the Future Act - Land Grant Research Prioritization Act VII. Establishing a Federal Policy Framework, Preempting Cumbersome State AI Laws - AI LEAD Act - American Artificial Intelligence Leadership and Uniformity Act - (+ lots of draft staff langauge) You get the point. Congress has already done a ton of work on these issues. So don’t read the framework as a random standalone statement of principles. Read it as the President weighing in on active legislative debates and charting a path forward. So yes, it's three pages. And those three pages could entirely reshape U.S. federal AI policy, if we're fortunate.

Let’s take a quick look at the core constitutional arguments behind the Trump Administration’s call for limited preemption of state laws that pertain to AI development. (1) doomers, boomers, and everyone in between has recognized that “as AI goes, so goes the country.” That has constitutional ramifications. Whether you’re concerned about AI and bioweapons or attentive to the importance of AI to our national economy, the Founders made clear that our federal system must allow for a uniform response to nationwide concerns. (2) being pro-federalism does not mean being pro-state or pro-federal government but pro-Union. So governing authority must rest with the body that’s competent to handle the policy domain while also ensuring the proper degree of political accountability. We all want AI to go “well.” That means making sure the US leads in innovation, in safety research, and in adoption. (3) each era of technological change forces a deep analysis of the proper distribution of authority between the states and the federal government. Steamboats, trains, cars, and bits have all been contested territory. We’re having that conversation now around AI. The undeniable advances in the tech make clear that some aspects of the AI tech stack are best left to the federal government while others are properly amenable to local rules and regs. (4) to allow states to shape the frontier of AI will hinder federalist principles and republican values. State laws that dictate how models are trained will impact out of state residents. That subverts the key values of political accountability. There’s a lot more to say on this - as @neil_chilson and I have laid out in the @HarvardJOLT and other outlets. But wanted to get the conversation started.

"If a reasonable person that interacts with an AI companion..." Define reasonable person here. In a world in which there's such a varied level of AI use and literacy, I think this inquiry is being overlooked by lawmakers employing this or similar language.

Emil Michael now appears to be making an argument that no generative AI should be used in the DoW supply chain (all uncertainties involving model sentience and general unpredictability are common to all language models, not specific to Claude).
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

DoD official Emil Michael on designating Anthropic a supply chain risk -- "Their model has a soul, a 'constitution' -- not the US Constitution. The other day their model was 'anxious' and they believe it has a 20% chance of being sentiment and having its own ability to make decisions. Does the Dept of War want something like that in their supply chain?"

Your AI provocation of the day: Jefferson: "were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter." His rationale? "The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right." Would he say the same about AI? We know how some Minnesota lawmakers would answer that question but what do you think?
