It seems like just yesterday (though it\u2019s been almost six months) since OpenAI launched ChatGPT<\/a> and began making headlines.<\/p>\n

ChatGPT reached 100 million users<\/a> within three months, making it the fastest-growing application in decades. For comparison, it took TikTok nine months \u2013 and Instagram two and a half years \u2013 to reach the same milestone.<\/p>\n

Now, ChatGPT can utilize GPT-4<\/a> along with internet browsing and plugins<\/a> from brands like Expedia, Zapier, Zillow, and more to answer user prompts.<\/p>\n

Big Tech companies like Microsoft<\/a> have partnered with OpenAI to create AI-powered customer solutions. Google<\/a>, Meta<\/a>, and others are building their language models and AI products.<\/p>\n

Over 27,000 people \u2013 including tech CEOs, professors, research scientists, and politicians \u2013 have signed a petition<\/a> to pause AI development of systems more powerful than GPT-4.<\/p>\n

Now, the question may not be whether the United States government should regulate AI \u2013 if it\u2019s not already too late.<\/p>\n

The following are recent developments in AI regulation and how they may affect the future of AI advancement.<\/p>\n

Federal Agencies Commit To Fighting Bias<\/h2>\n

Four key U.S. federal agencies \u2013 the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), the Department of Justice\u2019s Civil Rights Division (DOJ-CRD), the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) \u2014 issued a statement<\/a> on the strong commitment to curbing bias and discrimination in automated systems and AI.<\/p>\n

These agencies have underscored their intent to apply existing regulations to these emergent technologies to ensure they uphold the principles of fairness, equality, and justice.<\/p>\n
