Listen "99 to 1: What Congress Told Big Tech About AI Regulation with the Big Beautiful Bill"
Episode Synopsis
Should states be allowed to regulate AI, or are we risking innovation with death by a thousand cuts?
In this episode of Leading Change in the Wild, I dive into the now-infamous “Big Beautiful Bill,” the 10-year moratorium on state-level AI regulation that was overwhelmingly struck down in the Senate.
What’s at stake?
A lot. From who gets to decide what’s ethical AI to how fast innovation can move, this debate is shaping the future of artificial intelligence in the U.S.
What you'll learn in this episode:
Why lawmakers pushed to block states from regulating AI for 10 years
Why was that proposal rejected 99–1 in the Senate
What leaders like Anthropic’s CEO are suggesting instead
How this mirrors the 1990s internet boom and Section 230
What Colorado’s new AI law reveals about where we’re headed
What leaders and organizations should do now to stay resilient amid regulatory uncertainty
Whether you're building with AI, buying AI, or trying to understand how it will be governed, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
