How are U.S. states shaping the future of artificial intelligence? In this episode of The Data Chronicles, we unpack The State of State AI, the latest report from the Future of Privacy Forum (FPF) analyzing more than 200 AI-related bills introduced across 42 states. 

Host Scott Loughlin is joined by Justine Gluck, a policy analyst at FPF, to discuss how lawmakers are shifting toward targeted, transparency-driven regulation, focusing on areas such as healthcare, chatbot use, liability frameworks, and innovation sandboxes, rather than pursuing a single sweeping national approach. Together, they explore how these trends signal where AI policymaking is headed and what it means for developers, deployers, and consumers.
