- Anthropic is pursuing a state-by-state strategy of 'one-upmanship' that encourages individual states to pass progressively tougher AI safety laws, according to Politico.
- OpenAI is taking the opposing approach, advocating 'reverse federalism' — common state-level rules rather than a patchwork of state-by-state regulations.
Why it matters: Anthropic is pushing states to adopt ever-tougher AI safety laws one-by-one, while OpenAI is pursuing 'reverse federalism' — common state rules — leaving state lawmakers to weigh two directly opposing visions from the AI industry's leading labs on how U.S. AI safety rules should be structured.
