AI Giants' "Boom and Doom" Rhetoric Angers Washington as U.S. Lawmakers Tell Them to "Shut Up and Focus on Products" — BigGo Finance

PolicyIndustry

BigGo Finance has published a report headlined "AI Giants' 'Boom and Doom' Rhetoric Angers Washington as U.S. New York Democratic Representative Alex Bores called the company's policy proposals vague and argued that their aim is to stop states from regulating AI themselves.

OpenAI responded that it has maintained contact with both parties and with state legislatures. The company said that after completing a review it notified the White House and affected federal agencies, and that it is working with the administration's "superintelligence task force" on incident reporting procedures. The excerpt does not identify which review was completed, which agencies were notified, or what the proposals contain.

The report characterises the exchange as part of friction between Washington and AI companies over public messaging, with lawmakers quoted in the headline telling the companies to "shut up and focus on products." The headline uses the plural "AI Giants" and the phrase "boom and doom rhetoric," but the excerpt supplied does not elaborate on which statements or which other companies prompted the reaction. The excerpt names OpenAI and Bores only, and does not specify which legislative bodies, bills, or formal actions are involved, nor whether any action has been taken against the company.
