California’s newly signed AI law just gave Big Tech exactly what it wanted

California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed the Transparency in Frontier AI Act into law. This legislation requires AI companies with substantial revenue to disclose their safety protocols and report critical incidents. However, it stops short of mandating actual safety testing, a more stringent measure that was vetoed last year due to industry lobbying. The new law emphasizes transparency over mandatory testing, prompting debate about its effectiveness in mitigating AI risks.
