Are OpenAI, Google, Meta plotting to take down state AI regulations?
US AI regulation 2025 : Tech giants including OpenAI, Meta, and Google are stepping up efforts to block US states from regulating their rapidly growing artificial intelligence businesses, as per a report. Tech Giants Push Back Against State-Level AI Regulations These companies are lobbying both the White House and Republican-led Congress, after five states, including Texas, Colorado, California, Tennessee and New York passed significant AI-related laws, as reported by Bloomberg. Kouri Marshall, director of state government relations with tech trade group Chamber of Progress, pointed out that, 'Lawmakers should be inviting innovation, not driving it away from the state,' as quoted in the Bloomberg report. The group has major players like Andreessen Horowitz, Google, Apple, and Amazon among its members, according to the report. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Replace Your Entire Roof in as Little as 1 Day!

After all, the companies that make early AI breakthroughs stand to gain trillions of dollars in market value, as reported by Bloomberg. Live Events Matt Perault, head of artificial intelligence policy at Andreessen Horowitz, highlighted that, 'My hope is the focus moves away from trying to regulate development to regulating use' by individual customers, as quoted in the report.

Although that effort failed, tech companies successfully influenced White House advisers to version of the federal moratorium on state regulation in Trump's AI plan released in July, as per the report. That plan gives non-binding guidance to federal agencies, which includes a directive that AI-related federal funding should not go to states with 'unduly restrictive' AI regulation, as reported by Bloomberg. While, industry lobbyists say companies are pushing again to attach the 10-year ban on state regulations to upcoming legislation, according to the report.

However, federal AI legislation remains stalled due to political disagreements and opposition from tech-friendly lawmakers, according to the report.

Hope Anderson, a privacy and AI lawyer with White & Case, told Bloomberg that the speed of technological change makes it 'tricky' for the law to keep up, and more so if states enact a 'patchwork' of differing regulations, as quoted in the report. FAQs Why are tech companies against state-level AI laws? Because 50 different rules would make it harder for them to scale and innovate quickly. What do the tech companies want instead? They prefer a single federal law focused on how AI is used, not how it's built.

After billion-dollar hirings, Zuckerberg slams brakes on Meta's AI hiring spree as bubble fears shake Silicon Valley
Meta AI hiring freeze : Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has hit pause on Meta's aggressive recruitment of artificial intelligence talent, signaling a major shift in the company's AI ambitions amid growing concerns over an AI investment bubble shaking Silicon Valley, as per a report. Meta Freezes Recruitment in 'Superintelligence Labs' The company has frozen hiring across its so-called 'superintelligence labs,' allowing exceptions only with approval from AI chief Alexandr Wang, according to the Telegraph report. This sudden halt marks a sharp turnaround for Meta, which not long ago was offering sky-high pay packages, reportedly reaching up to $1 billion, to lure top AI researchers from rivals like OpenAI and Google, according to the report.

Firms such as Nvidia, Arm, and Palantir have all taken hits this week, according to the report. The US stock market volatility was largely driven due to a report from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which claimed that 95% of companies were getting 'zero return' on their AI investments, as reported by The Telegraph.

Analysts Warn High AI Salaries Could Dilute Shareholder Value Despite the hiring freeze, Zuckerberg recently told investors that he wanted 'small, talent-dense teams' to be driving its AI work, instead of large groups of researchers, according to The Telegraph report. Meta has emphasized that the cost of paying staff will significantly increase in the coming years, as per the report. However, analysts at Morgan Stanley have warned this week that the pay surge may 'dilute shareholder value without any clear innovation gains," as quoted by The Telegraph report.

Meta paused hiring to reorganise its AI efforts and focus on building smaller, more effective teams. Who can still be hired for AI roles at Meta? Only exceptions approved by Meta's AI chief, Alexandr Wang, are allowed to join right now.
