You’ve been invited to attend this week’s POLITICO Pro subscriber briefing happening today — part of your limited-time access to conversations typically reserved for Pro subscribers.

States across the country have introduced more than 1,000 pieces of legislation targeting artificial intelligence so far this year — a dramatic escalation that reflects both the importance of the technology and the urgency among policymakers to act. In California, for example, Gov. Gavin Newsom recently signed a first-of-its-kind AI safety law that once again positions the Golden State at the forefront of tech regulation. Meanwhile, the Trump administration and key Republicans in Congress have sought to squash this patchwork of state laws, and instead pursue a looser framework that they argue would allow AI to flourish.

Please join us on Thursday, October 16, at 1:00pm ET for an in-depth discussion on the battle between Washington and Sacramento to shape the development of this fast-evolving technology and its implications for the way people live and work.
