The texas ai regulation HB 149 is horrible, its been pushed by a single think thank that claims to care about deregulation but is run by a former DC republican staffer, who has no expierence in tech or AI.
I called the writers of the bill which included my local rep, they didn't reply but their assistant told me no consultant or ai firm or startup was asked to give input on this bill.
The bill writers include democrats and Texas DOGE members which makes no sense, the bill grows state spending and restrictions.
