Senator Schiff Calls for 'FDA for AI,' Mandatory Training-Data Retention and Recursive-AI Guardrails

On Decoder, Senator Adam Schiff said AI 'is crying out for legislation' and backed a dedicated regulator — 'whether that looks like an FDA for AI or some other agency.' He called for mandatory retention of copyrighted training-data records and flagged recursive AI as a national-security concern, saying 'as these models become more and more advanced, as they advance themselves through this recursive AI, we have less and less of a sense of what they're doing.'
