This new legislation introduced by Rep. Norma Torres aims to foster international collaborations between U.S. cities and their foreign counterparts to develop and promote the responsible use of artificial intelligence. The bill proposes that the State Department establish AI research partnerships between willing U.S. localities and foreign cities, focusing on economic cooperation and workforce development. The partnerships would be limited to non-national security areas of AI and would adhere to export controls. I believe this is a crucial step in ensuring that AI development aligns with democratic values and promotes economic prosperity. The allocation of $20 million per year from 2025 to 2028 to facilitate these partnerships is a significant investment in the future of AI research.
