 The death of the Chevron doctrine complicates U.S. lawmakers’ efforts to regulate AI—but there’s another way
==========

The U.S. Supreme Court has overturned the Chevron doctrine, which empowered federal regulators to interpret unclear laws, limiting the abilities of rule-making agencies to interpret and administer laws on public concerns. This ruling has implications for the regulation of artificial intelligence (AI). The U.S. needs nimble, forward-thinking policies to protect against AI risks while promoting innovation. Three principles for AI governance are proposed: prioritizing AI incident reporting to identify risks, leveraging existing regulatory authorities, and leveraging America's strengths in innovation and decentralized economy. The ruling presents an opportunity to create a more agile and innovation-friendly governance environment for AI.
