Fordel StudiosThe race to regulate AI has sparked a federal vs. state showdown
What Happened
The fight over AI regulation isn't about the technology — it's about whether Washington or the states get to set the rules, and what happens to consumers caught in between.
Our Take
Honestly? This is just federalism theater. States regulate differently, feds drag their feet, and companies ship whatever's easiest to sell — then lawyers figure out which rules actually apply. The real problem isn't "who decides" — it's that by the time Washington agrees on anything, we're already past it.
ChatGPT came out less than two years ago. We don't need consensus on regulation yet; we need people actually using these things to notice what breaks. This'll be a footnote in ten years when someone finally made a decision.
What To Do
Skip worrying about multi-state compliance sprawl — build like California law is the floor anyway.
