LEGISLATION

🔍 Will Silicon Valley’s AI future shift?

Our Report: California Governor, Gavin Newsom, is currently reviewing 38 bills—that, if passed, could create new laws around AI—including the controversial SB 1047 AI Safety Bill (designed to hold tech companies accountable if AI systems cause great public harm), and although he hasn’t confirmed whether he’ll sign or veto the bill (he still has 2 weeks to decide), he has echoed concerns from some of its opponents (namely, OpenAI, Nancy Pelosi, the US Chamber of Commerce, and big tech trade groups).

🔑 Key Points:

• Newsom is interested in bills that solve current problems, without upsetting California’s AI industry, and believes SB 1047 could have an “outsized impact” and a “chilling effect” on the open-source community.

• Although the bill aims to prevent AI from creating huge disasters costing over $500M—such as bringing down critical infrastructure—he thinks it doesn’t hold companies accountable for anything less.

• He said the disruption SB 1047 would bring to the AI industry will not happen overnight (as some have said) but signing the wrong AI bill will—over time—profoundly impact California’s dominance.

🤔 Why you should care: Despite his uncertainty surrounding SB 1047, Newsom has, this week, signed five AI bills to address AI issues, three have been designed to stop AI-generated election misinformation, and two to prevent Hollywood studios from using AI to clone actors.

AI IMAGES

🔧 Google first to tackle AI images

Our Report: Over the coming months, Google will introduce a new feature to identify whether an image found in its search results (including Circle to Search and Google Lens) was taken with a camera, edited by software (like Photoshop), or generated using AI.

🔑 Key Points:

• Google has partnered with the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA)—the biggest group tackling AI imagery—and will use their ‘Content Credentials’ standards to flag/label the origins of images.

• They worked with C2PA to develop the latest version of the credentials and will use these and C2PA’s ‘Trusted List’ which validates the content's origins, to confirm if the information is accurate.

• They will start by adding the origins of images within an ‘About this image’ button on search results pages, but they also plan to roll it out for YouTube viewers and also include it in their ads, later this year.

🤔 Why you should care: While the likes of Amazon, Microsoft, Adobe, Arm, OpenAI, and Intel, have all publicly backed CP2A’s image authentication standards, Google will be the first to implement it, as there are several adoption challenges, like just a handful of cameras from Leica and Sony have agreed to adopt it and be on the Trust List (although Nikon and Canon have pledged their support) and there are also issues with how to view the data, once its added to an image—most major platforms don’t have label systems, like Google—but its thought that Google’s uptake might encourage others.

INVESTMENTS

💡 BlackRock + Microsoft: Big AI push

• Venture giant BlackRock plans to launch one of Wall Street’s biggest AI-focused funds—over $100B—with Microsoft and others, to build AI data centers and the energy infrastructure to power them.

• The companies involved have formed a ‘Global Artificial Intelligence Infrastructure Partnership’ which is “committed to ensuring AI advances innovation and drives growth across every sector of the economy.”

• GAIIP will initially seek $30B of private equity, which it will then leverage to raise $100B, which it doesn’t “believe will be a difficult task,” with most of the infrastructure being deployed in the US.

• They also announced fifth-generation smart glasses with AR capabilities, which mirror mobile device screens, support hand gestures/voice commands, and shortly, OpenAI’s ChatGPT, but they’re just for developers.

• An AI video-generation tool (available in beta) was also introduced, which allows creators to generate AI videos from text/image prompts, and also updates to the ‘My AI chatbot’ so it now works like Google Lens.
