Relying on PowerPoint slides and briefing papers, AI industry lobbyists are getting lots of face time with lawmakers and staffers, advising them on the ins and outs of the technology. “The constant theme is don’t do what the EU has done. The throwaway line is, ‘The EU is a regulatory superpower,’” said Rep. Don Beyer, a Virginia Democrat focused on AI. “I haven’t heard anyone sticking up for the EU yet.”
“On AI, we are pushing on an open door” in Congress, Craig Albright, the top lobbyist and senior vice president atVarun Krovi, a technology lobbyist, said such educational campaigns are effective because they build a level of rapport and trust between lobbyists and lawmakers. One reason for that power, say skeptics about the way artificial intelligence is regulated, is that outside entities such as academia and nonprofits cannot keep up with AI companies and trade associations that are influencing Congress. According to academics, members of Congress are more willing to listen to representatives from well-known technology companies than they are from more impartial experts.
