It’s often easier to talk about problems than solutions. Here are four concrete things we can do to regulate AI: 1. Require AI companies to disclose safety incidents 2. Require monitoring to be turned on for all deployments 3. Require data retention 4. Verify chips are in authorized locations

Of course it was 6-3. People are going to have to vote in numbers too big to challenge. That's just how it is, unless states can block this somehow.

Remember, it's virtually impossible to sue federal agents, so it will be basically impossible to hold ICE officers who shock people without justification accountable. We should not be giving new weapons like this to a law enforcement agency that enjoys near-total impunity.

President of MIT not mincing words today in @statnews.com www.statnews.com/2026/05/27/s...

So let me say it as clearly as I can: Without basic scientific research, supported by the kind of farsighted public investment that allows large-scale, undirected, curiosity-driven inquiry, the scientific pipeline will run dry.
In daily life, people may not feel the effects right away, or even in 10 years. But we will feel it. And when someone we love needs therapies that could have emerged but didn't or when other countries now
investing in science can launch new science-based industries or run their societies on vast resources of fusion energy or reap the benefits of quantum computing power or advanced medical breakthroughs, America will wish it sustained its leadership in scientific research here and now.
