FRONTIER Act Frontier Risk Oversight, National Transparency,...
To provide for Federal oversight of the development and deployment of frontier artificial intelligence in interstate and foreign commerce, and for other purposes.
This bill, HB9925, proposes to establish federal oversight for the development and deployment of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) in activities that cross state lines or involve foreign countries. It aims to ensure that this frontier technology is managed responsibly and safely, considering potential impacts on commerce and society.
The bill would affect businesses, researchers, and developers of AI technologies that operate across state lines or internationally. It would require these entities to comply with federal regulations, which may include safety assessments, ethical guidelines, and reporting requirements. This oversight is intended to prevent risks associated with advanced AI, such as privacy concerns and economic disruptions.
HB9925 was introduced on July 23, 2026, and has been referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce and the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. These committees will review the bill and determine the next steps in the legislative process. The bill is currently in the early stages, and further actions will depend on the committees' recommendations.
