California — Broader Healthcare AI Regulation Bill (Vetoed by Newsom)
Governor Newsom vetoed a broad California AI regulation bill (SB 1047) in September 2024 that would have required large AI developers to conduct safety testing, implement kill-switch capabilities, and face liability for harms caused by frontier AI models. Newsom cited concerns the bill would stifle innovation and was premature given the state of AI development.
