## Resource

In this episode, New York State Assembly Member Alex Bores discusses the RAISE Act, a proposed bill aimed at regulating frontier AI models with basic safety protocols. He explains his background in technology, his motivations for the bill, and the legislative process. He emphasizes the importance of having clear safety protocols, third-party audits, and whistleblower protections for AI developers. He explains the intricacies of the bill, including its focus on large developers and frontier models, and addresses potential objections related to regulatory capture and state-level legislation. Alex encourages public and industry input to refine and support the bill, aiming for a balanced approach to AI regulation that keeps both innovation and public safety in mind.
