AI safety law for developers comes into effect in New York

A sweeping law on artificial intelligence system safety is taking effect in New York State. The new rules affect the industry's largest developers, including OpenAI and Anthropic.

According to the regulator's requirements, leading companies are mandated to undergo official registration and publicly disclose their safety testing protocols for their models. Furthermore, the law obligates developers to immediately report critical incidents and malfunctions in AI systems.

Failure to comply with the new regulations will result in heavy fines. The measure is intended to strengthen oversight of the creators of advanced models as they are increasingly adopted by commercial and government entities.
