Public Policy + PR Outreach
Introduction:
The following is a PR & Public Policy project proposal by @Ori Nagel & @mdtaberto better advocate for AI regulation with targeted PR.The American AI policy situation currently:
- The American Congress is unlikely to pass anymore bills this year because it’s an election year.
- There’s 9-10 federal bills that are unmoved since January 2024. A committee is a dangerous place for bills, since it allows opposition to take over the bill.
- AI needs to be an issue this election year. There’s not enough momentum to get things passed, which means that inadequate PR is a blocker for legislative action right now.
- 1) Use PR/media relations to support adoption of AI regulations statewide
- 2) Use PR/media relations to support adoption of AI regulation federally
1) Develop newsworthy stories and pitch them to reporters, alongside messaging that about regulations that PauseAI endorse. The pitch angles may include:
Tech lobbying activities
- Package up evidence of adversarial lobbying to squash AI regulation bills, including scandalous on camera evidence of them trying to kill bills.
