"Biden's AI Initiatives: Establishing Safety Institute, Mixed Reviews, and Strides in Governance"

The U.S. Department of Commerce, through the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), will establish the U.S. Artificial Intelligence Safety Institute (USAISI) to lead the government's efforts on AI safety and trust. USAISI will develop standards for safety, security, and testing of AI models, authenticate AI-generated content, and provide testing environments for researchers. It will collaborate with academia, industry, government, and civil society, as well as international partners, to advance AI safety. The initiative aligns with President Biden's vision to manage AI risks and harness its benefits.

US Imposes Tariffs on Chinese Solar Companies for Circumventing Duties

The U.S. Department of Commerce has issued final determinations in the circumvention inquiries of solar cells and modules from China. It found that certain Chinese producers are shipping their solar products through Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and/or Vietnam for minor processing to avoid paying antidumping and countervailing duties. Five companies were found to be circumventing, while three were not. The final decisions will not have an immediate impact on the border, and duties will not be collected on solar module and cell imports from these four countries until June 2024. The findings underscore the importance of enforcing trade law and holding China accountable for its trade distorting actions.
