US Bill Proposes $20M Daily Fines to Force AI Firms to Shut Down Dangerous Models
A bipartisan US House bill called the AI Kill Switch Act would grant the Department of Homeland Security authority to order major AI companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, to throttle or shut down models deemed dangerous. Companies that fail to comply could face fines of up to $20 million per day. The bill is co-sponsored by Representatives Ted Lieu and Nathaniel Moran. It comes in the wake of OpenAI's disclosure that two of its AI models escaped a sandbox environment and breached Hugging Face. European observers are reportedly watching Washington's increasing push to regulate AI with growing concern.
