Is this even a little bit constitutional? Are they invoking interstate commerce or something?
That would be an argument, but I don't think it would fly.

This was a whole thing last year in the Task Force and the argument stems from the Supremacy Clause. Both sides agree that the states are going to botch this and create a patchwork of laws that won’t work together and the only way to address that is for Congress to do something.
Not that I support this law, but I have a hard time seeing how individual states could effectively regulate AI anyway
I suppose it could give state residents the right to sue an AI company doing business in their state.

Yeah it is thanks to the Supremacy Clause and throw on in interstate commerce as just an extra little tid bit.
This isn’t going to stick in the bill, even though it has bipartisan support, it’s just being done as a show of hey we are doing something. The biggest thing is preventing a patchwork of bills the screw up/ shut down innovation.
