In its legislation, the group lobbies for stringent rules on AI, with a focus on safety, establishment of a licensing regime and the imposition of civil and criminal liabilities for misuse of AI. Marc Ross, Communications Director at the Center for AI Policy, said in a LinkedIn post, alongside an official press release,
Safety first: The Center for AI Policy, a new group lobbying for tight rules on artificial intelligence, released a draft bill this morning that would launch a new AI safety agency. It would also grant the White House sweeping emergency powers, establish a strict licensing regime, clamp down on open-source models, and impose civil and criminal liability on developers.

AI token prices suffer a decline
Data from crypto intelligence tracker CoinGecko shows that the top AI tokens have observed a correction in their prices on Wednesday. This correction has been likely catalyzed by Bitcoin’s price decline below $68,000, on Binance. It may be attributed to the Responsible Advanced Artificial Intelligence Act legislation proposed by the policy group, which according to Marc Ross, spells concerns for developers.
