In the absence of federal AI legislation, efforts to federally regulate frontier AI models will have to rely on existing legal authorities. The latest working paper from LawAI, co-authored by Charlie Bullock, Suzanne Van Arsdale, Mackenzie Arnold, Matthijs Maas, and Christoph Winter, discusses a number of existing authorities and analyzes the extent to which they could realistically contribute to tracking and licensing regimes for frontier AI: https://lnkd.in/egDtNAYC
