Comment by Office of Governor Kathy Hochul

Governor Kathy Hochul today signed legislation to require AI frameworks for AI frontier models, setting a nation-leading standard for AI transparency and safety. The agreed-upon chapter amendments to the RAISE Act (S6953B/A6453B) requires large AI developers to create and publish information about their safety protocols, and report incidents to the State within 72 hours of determining that an incident occurred. It also creates an oversight office within the Department of Financial Services that will assess large frontier developers and enable greater transparency. The office will issue reports annually.

AI Verified Relevant: the quote is from a source announcing and praising a law for frontier-model developers that must "create and publish information about their safety protocols," plus transparency and oversight requirements; the same source calls this a "strong and sensible standard for frontier AI safety." That is directly on the issue of mandatory safety-related disclosure for frontier AI labs, so support for the statement is substantially more likely even though the quote does not use the exact words "safety evaluations" or explicitly say "before deploying."

AI Verified The author is clearly supportive: this official statement praises Hochul for signing a law that "requires large AI developers to create and publish information about their safety protocols" and calls it a "nation-leading standard for AI transparency and safety." That strongly implies support for mandatory public safety disclosures for frontier models, though the quote is about publishing safety-protocol information and does not explicitly use the exact phrase "safety evaluations before deploying."

AI Verified Relevant: the quote and source context present Hochul approving New York’s own AI safety law as a “nation-leading” state standard, and the source explicitly says New York is “setting a strong and sensible standard for frontier AI safety” while “the federal government lags behind.” That makes support for states keeping the ability to impose stricter AI safety rules than the federal government substantially more likely.

AI Verified The official governor.ny.gov press release at the supplied URL, dated 2025-12-19, contains these two opening paragraphs verbatim at lines 54-55. The source URL matches, and because this is official press-release copy published on Governor Hochul’s site rather than a personal spoken remark, attributing it to the Office of Governor Kathy Hochul is appropriate.
