House Speaker Johnson Rules Out Federal AI Regulation
· World · Axios, USA Today, usatoday

He indicated that the legislative body is not prepared to spearhead the development of federal AI protocols. This stance comes as industry leaders and public advocates continue to call for clearer guidelines on AI development. The decision leaves the responsibility for safety standards largely in the hands of private companies for the time being.
