Pathways to Government Regulation of Artificial Intelligence: Developing Consensus Policies That Can Be Implemented Around the World

Abstract

With no federal legislation focusing on protecting people from the potential harms of AI and other automated systems still forthcoming, several states are moving ahead with protective measures for their residents, based on good governance principles. This study reviews several models for AI regulation that are being developed by states such as California, Texas, and Illinois, which may serve as models for both federal legislation in the United States and for adaptation by the European Union and other nations. Specifically, areas of potential consensus are considered, including AI’s advancement of civil rights and access to critical services; the need for greater transparency in AI systems; and potential requirements for undertaking algorithmic impact assessments. Legislative design and regulatory enforcement issues are also included.
