If you read the article, it is clear that it doesn't block any and all regulation of AI. It says states cannot make federal funding follow non-federal rules around AI. The federal government may actually have more regulations than states, and this would require states to do a better job.

IN GENERAL.-Except as provided in paragraph (2), no State or political subdivision thereof may enforce any law or regulation regulating artificial intelligence models, artificial intelligence sys-tems, or automated decision systems during the 10-year period beginning on the date of the enactment of this Act.

It’s an across the board blanket preemption.

There's no indication the Feds are going to take any initiative on this at all. They lap up Altman's pandering at Senate Hearings and will do nothing.

> The federal government may actually have more regulations than states

There would be a chance of this being true if the language didn't bar states from enforcing their own regulation; there's no point to that except for a worry that some states' regulation will be more strict.

(Or shouldn't, at least.)

AI has significant impacts on interstate commerce, which the feds have basically carte blanche to regulate.
