Anthropic called on the US Congress on Wednesday not to block state AI regulations unless lawmakers pass a "rigorous" federal law that addresses "catastrophic AI risks," according to a company statement, as part of a broader proposal to set rules on the technology.
US President Donald Trump has urged Congress to enact legislation that would supersede state rules on AI. Anthropic on Wednesday weighed in on that topic, adding that Congress should require AI companies to put their most powerful models through independent safety tests, according to a company statement.
