You can find me @cobun wherever you want to find me.

Or at least wherever I want to be found.

@Dareasmunhoz There always have been both factions within WH, or at least around the President, right? But very interesting to see where the Roulette wheel pauses on this (still de-regulatory), though as usual there is every incentive to keep it spinning...

"I didn't like what I was seeing," Trump said of the EO. After those and other incredibly frank remarks about the EO, it's becoming clear that portions of the WH may have done a pivot on AI regulation, but Trump himself hasn't. At least not yet. Still committed to hands off

[Diego Areas Munhoz @Dareasmunhoz]

🚨🚨🚨"I didn't like certain aspects of it," Trump says of why EO was postponed. "I don't want to do anything that will get in the way of that lead" he says of lead over China

"I really thought [EO] could have been a blocker and I want to make sure it's not"

[Diego Areas Munhoz @Dareasmunhoz]

NEW: WH has POSTPONED AI EO ceremony that was expected this afternoon to a later date, I'm told. It's unclear why the delay yet

ChatGPT allegedly shares your chat query topics, user IDs, and email addresses with Google and Meta, according to a new class action lawsuit filed today.

@megangrA Yeah, sorry, I didn't end up getting a chance to pull up all the others to see if they have a similar "national security" exception.

My reaction to your point on "internal security" is that its inclusion alongside "international &" shows it is meant to mean "domestic." But...🤷‍♂️

Yesterday, in a nationwide FIRST, the Colorado Senate passed a bill that would ban companies from using consumers’ private data — including search history, past purchases, and geolocation — for rigging prices and wages.

As the legislation waits for concurrence in the CO House, @GovofCO has the chance to make history by signing HB26-1210 into law.

[Cobun Zweifel-Keegan @cobun]

@megangrA I'm going through and comparing to the other location data settlements. I'll check on this one... interesting.

Update here: Per court filing, CO has voluntarily agreed to stay their own law until the court rules on a forthcoming preliminary injunction motion from xAI. CO AG office tells me that their office will need to do rulemaking before enforcing the law or any law that replaces it.

Out today- the bipartisan bill from @tedlieu and @JayObernolte that codifies a lot of their AI task force report recommendations from 2024 👇Obernolte is working on a separate AI bill as well

This story is so much fun! Committees pitted against each other, Hill vs FCC, retail giants against a little-known company with a stable of powerful Republican lobbyists — all over a little bit of spectrum

NEWS: Senate has just passed COPPA 2.0 under unanimous consent. Sens Markey and Cassidy led the effort on the floor. Comes as there's an ongoing markup at E&C on a Republican version of the bill, which Markey says "undermines strong bipartisan compromise" in the Senate

It is with great sadness and abiding hope that I leave my role as AAG for Antitrust today. It was indeed the honor of a lifetime to serve in this role. Huge thanks to all who supported me this past year, most especially the men and women of @justiceatr
