•Exemption from liability is granted if the harm wasn't intentional or reckless, and the developer published safety, security, and transparency reports.
•OpenAI argues this approach reduces serious risks, avoids a patchwork of state laws, and preserves US leadership in AI innovation, marking a shift in their legislative strategy.
•This move highlights the industry's push for a federal regulatory framework to standardize AI liability, though the bill's passage is considered unlikely by some experts.
