The Alarm Rang. Nobody Voted.

This season, in Washington, a bill to test the machines froze. Old Tane: drafted in April, five months on ice. Lord Ozen: there is always next year! Even the labs' own leaders asked for oversight. Aki's cut: the alarm rang, nobody voted.

After an AI lab warned in April that its newest model was too dangerous for the public, two House members drafted a bill to require safety testing of AI models; five months later it and dozens of other AI safety proposals are on ice with no votes in sight, some members wanting to wait past November's midterms, and the committee chairman says no vote until next year while admitting he does not understand how the models work, even as the labs' own leaders ask for more oversight.
