1. California has enacted a law that requires AI developers with annual revenues exceeding $500 million to disclose their safety measures.
2. Developers must also establish a whistleblower mechanism for employees to report significant public health or safety risks and report critical incidents involving AI to the state government.
3. Failure to comply may result in a fine of up to one million dollars, with Governor Gavin Newsom stating that this regulation aims to protect communities while fostering the growth of the AI industry. The law follows an earlier bill vetoed last year amid tech giant backlash, which was amended and resubmitted for approval.
