Occurrences

As one immediate step, Vasquez is backing H.R. 9925, the bipartisan Frontier Risk Oversight, National Transparency, Independent Evaluation, and Reporting (FRONTIER) Act . The FRONTIER Act would create a national, risk-based framework to oversee the most advanced AI systems, with stronger requirements for the largest developers.
