💨 Abstract

The European Union's AI Act, enacted to prevent a patchwork of AI legislation, has inspired but also sparked debate among U.S. legislators. Some view it as a model for consumer protection, while others caution against overregulation. The EU law, comprehensive and mandating risk mitigation and transparency from developers, has spurred discussions in the U.S. about balancing innovation and regulation. Critics worry about excessive state and local mandates, while supporters see potential benefits in consumer protection.
