Ted Cruz (R-TX). Many prominent Silicon Valley executives \u2014 including OpenAI\u2019s Sam Altman, Anduril\u2019s Palmer Luckey, and a16z\u2019s Marc Andreessen \u2014 were in favor of the so-called \u201cAI moratorium,\u201d which they said would prevent states from forming an unworkable patchwork of regulation that could stifle AI innovation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Opposition to the provision became a bipartisan issue, as most Democrats and many Republicans warned that the ban on state regulation would harm consumers, and let powerful AI companies operate with little oversight. Critics also objected to Cruz\u2019s plan to tie compliance with federal broadband funding.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After going back and forth over the provision, Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) on Monday offered an amendment to s<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a> the provision alongside Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-WA).\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blackburn originally opposed the provision, but came to an agreement with Cruz over the weekend that shortened the proposed ban from ten years to five. Blackburn then pulled her support for the provision entirely on Monday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Senate voted 99-1 to strip the AI moratorium.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
