AI Incident Reporting Act

This bill would require the Secretary of Commerce to set rules within 180 days identifying which artificial intelligence models and developers could pose significant risks to national security or public safety. Designated developers would have to report certain incidents to the Secretary within 7 days, such as a model trying to evade human control, theft of model weights, or capabilities that could help with cyberattacks or chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, or explosive weapons. Reports would be kept from public disclosure and could not be used as evidence in lawsuits or by governments to regulate the developer, with some exceptions. The Secretary would inform certain congressional leaders of serious reports and could fine developers up to $2,000,000 per violation, with each day of a continuing violation counted separately.
