Bipartisan Bill Introduced to Combat AI Security Threats and Distillation Attacks
A new bipartisan bill, the Collaboration on Adversarial Threats and Security Risks Act, has been introduced by Representatives George Whitesides and Bob Latta, along with Senators Adam Schiff and Jim Banks. The legislation aims to enhance the ability of AI labs and security researchers to combat distillation attacks and other AI-related security threats. These attacks involve foreign entities harvesting data from U.S. AI models to create their own advanced systems, posing a significant threat to national security. The bill proposes increased information sharing among AI developers to mitigate these risks, with safeguards against anti-competitive behavior.
