NYC Says It Can Handle AI-Powered Cyberattacks, but Other Safeguards Are Still Catching Up
Institute Professor Julia Stoyanovich, director of the NYU Tandon Center for Responsible AI, told the New York City Council that the city "does not have an AI law problem as much as it has an enforcement problem," noting that its law governing hiring algorithms has produced two complaints and no penalties in three years. Proposed safeguards like an AI kill switch fall short without people to act on them, she said: "The kill switch won't help if no one is there to pull it."
