posting in an effort to wrap my head around this as I only encountered it while covering AI nuggets in the defense authorization bill...Here's the vote www.senate.gov/legislative/...

For those keeping track, Susan Collins of Maine also voted against the release of the files. The only [2] Republicans who voted for their release were men.

Now it would be a righteous riot if the special session, which the tech industry pushed for, ended up resulting in a bill that is much stronger for consumers. The new Rodriguez proposal--the Sunshine bill--doesn't seem to have the loopholes and safe harbors of the CAIA.

Also, the disclosure requirements in the CAIA have carveouts that will allow companies to withhold anything they deem related to their "trade secrets" or "intellectual property" so it still kind of a gamble that consumers will get useful info, IMHO

Nancy Mace is especially sickening.

Guess what's good for the goose ISN'T for the gander?

PS. It appears the judge who issued the order is no longer assigned to this case...not sure what that now means.

It is even suggested on information and belief that “the model underlying [Character Technologies’ LLM] was invented and initially built at Google.”

In short, what this mom is saying is: Google knew, Google knows.
