What Trump’s victory could mean for AI regulation

Donald Trump's election as What Trump’s victory could mean for AI regulation the 47th U.S. president signals potentially dramatic changes in AI regulation and policy. With Republicans controlling the Senate and possibly the House, the tech industry faces a significant shift in regulatory approach, particularly regarding AI development and oversight.

Biden's Legacy and Trump's Promises

The Biden administration's AI Executive Order, implemented in October 2023, established comprehensive frameworks for AI development and safety. Key achievements include the creation of the U.S. AI Safety Institute (AISI), partnerships with major AI companies like OpenAI and Anthropic, and new requirements for companies developing powerful AI models to report on training and security measures.

Trump has explicitly stated his intention to dismantle Biden's AI policy framework "on day one," particularly targeting provisions that Republicans have criticized as overly burdensome. His allies have consistently opposed what they view as excessive regulation, with prominent figures like JD Vance expressing concerns about "preemptive overregulation" potentially entrenching existing tech incumbents.

New Direction and Implications

The incoming administration's approach to AI regulation appears to favor minimal intervention. While Trump acknowledges AI's potential dangers, particularly regarding power consumption and general risks, experts like Sarah Kreps suggest major regulatory initiatives are unlikely in the next four years.

This federal regulatory vacuum could prompt increased activity at the state level. States have already begun implementing their own AI regulations, with nearly 700 pieces of AI legislation introduced this year alone. Tennessee has protected voice artists from AI cloning, Colorado adopted a risk-based approach to AI deployments, and California has implemented various AI safety measures.

The international implications could be significant, particularly regarding trade relations with China. Experts anticipate stricter export controls on AI-related technologies, potentially expanding upon existing bans on AI chips and models. Professor Hamid Ekbia warns this could impede global cooperation on AI regulation and enable more authoritarian uses of AI worldwide.

Trump's proposed trade policies, including a 10% tariff on all U.S. imports and 60% on Chinese products, could significantly impact the AI sector. Matt Mittelsteadt of George Mason University suggests these tariffs might restrict capital available for AI research and development.

The fate of existing institutions like the AISI remains uncertain. While it currently operates with established budgets and international partnerships, it could be dismantled through a simple repeal of Biden's executive order. A coalition of companies, nonprofits, and universities has urged Congress to codify the AISI before year's end.

The regulatory landscape may shift toward applying existing laws rather than creating new ones, according to Dean Ball of George Mason University. This approach could embolden Democratic-led states to fill the regulatory void, potentially creating a patchwork of state-level AI regulations.

Sandra Wachter from the Oxford Internet Institute emphasizes the importance of maintaining focus on AI's risks regardless of political affiliation. She argues that AI governance shouldn't become a partisan issue, as its impacts affect everyone globally.

The transition in AI policy could have far-reaching consequences for technological innovation, international cooperation, and the balance between federal and state regulation. As the industry adapts to this new political reality, the challenge will be maintaining progress in AI development while addressing legitimate safety and ethical concerns.

Apple iOS 18.2 public beta arrives with new AI features, but some remain waitlisted

Apple has released iOS 18.2 public beta, introducing new AI features including Genmoji for emoji generation, Image Playground for AI image creation, ChatGPT integration with Siri, and Visual Intelligence for iPhone 16 cameras. Users must opt-in to Apple Intelligence and join waitlists for certain features, with access being granted gradually for safety and scaling purposes. The update allows third-party developers to integrate Apple Intelligence into their apps across categories like Books, Browsers, Cameras, and Mail. This follows the iOS 18.1 release which introduced AI-powered Writing Tools and notification summaries. The company also released public betas for iPadOS 18.2, macOS Sequoia 15.2, and tvOS 18.2.

Google accidentally leaked Jarvis AI preview with its remote computer control capabilities

Google accidentally leaked a preview of its new AI project called Jarvis on the Chrome Web store. Named after Iron Man's AI assistant, Jarvis is designed to autonomously perform web-based tasks like booking tickets, shopping, and research. The AI uses "AI Vision" to interpret and interact with Chrome browser elements, though it's currently limited to browser operations unlike Anthropic's Claude, which can control entire computers. Google plans to officially launch Jarvis in December alongside Gemini 2.0, with the tool potentially being tested by early users as part of Google's demonstration of its new Gemini model capabilities.

ICO Takes Action to Protect Job Seekers' Rights in AI Recruitment

In a significant move to safeguard job seekers in the age of artificial intelligence, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) has announced comprehensive recommendations for AI developers and providers in the recruitment sector. This intervention comes at a crucial time when AI tools are increasingly being deployed to streamline hiring processes, from sourcing candidates to summarizing CVs and scoring applicants.

The ICO's investigation, which resulted in nearly 300 recommendations, revealed concerning practices in how AI recruitment tools handle personal data. Some systems were found to be inadvertently enabling discrimination by allowing recruiters to filter candidates based on protected characteristics, while others made potentially problematic inferences about gender and ethnicity from candidates' names rather than collecting accurate information directly.

"AI can bring real benefits to the hiring process, but it also introduces new risks that may cause harm to jobseekers if it is not used lawfully and fairly," explains Ian Hulme, ICO Director of Assurance. The audit discovered that some tools were collecting excessive personal information and retaining it indefinitely, building extensive candidate databases without proper transparency or consent.

The response from the industry has been positive, with audited organizations accepting or partially accepting all recommendations. One participant acknowledged their commitment to implementation, noting specific actions such as updating privacy policies and evaluating their AI tools for potential bias.

Looking ahead, the ICO plans to continue its oversight with a webinar scheduled for January 22, 2025, designed to help AI developers and recruiters understand and implement these recommendations. The regulator has also published key questions for organizations considering AI recruitment tools, enabling them to seek proper assurances from developers and providers.

This intervention represents a crucial step in ensuring that AI innovation in recruitment proceeds responsibly, balancing efficiency gains with fundamental privacy rights and fair treatment. By setting clear expectations and working collaboratively with industry players, the ICO is helping to build a recruitment ecosystem where advanced technology serves rather than disadvantages job seekers.

The message is clear: while AI can revolutionize recruitment, it must do so while respecting privacy rights and ensuring fair treatment for all candidates. As these tools become more prevalent, the ICO's guidelines provide a framework for responsible innovation that protects both job seekers and the organizations that serve them.
