That is fundamentally the basis of this bill, is that they will be defining their own safety protocols. They will be making those public, and then they will have to follow them.

Statement relation comments

AI Verified Relevant: source context shows "this bill" is a California measure that would force large AI developers to publish their safety protocols, and the speaker is explicitly defending that public-disclosure requirement. That makes a determinate stance on the closely related proposal to require labs to publish safety evaluations substantially more likely, even though the quote says "protocols" rather than "evaluations."

Vote answer comments

AI Verified The quote defends SB 53’s core approach: labs “will be making those public, and then they will have to follow them.” In the article, Bauer-Kahan is explaining a bill her committee advanced to force large AI developers to publish safety protocols, and the bill text adds predeployment transparency reports summarizing risk assessments. So the most likely position is support for required public safety disclosures before deployment, even though the quote says “protocols” more directly than “evaluations.” ([news.bloomberglaw.com](https://news.bloomberglaw.com/in-house-counsel/california-lawmakers-beef-up-ai-safety-bill-over-tech-opposition)) · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 14d ago

AI Verified Verified. The provided Bloomberg Law URL contains the quote, attributing it to Assemblymember Rebecca Bauer-Kahan: “That is fundamentally the basis of this bill, is that they will be defining their own safety protocols,” followed by “They will be making those public, and then they will have to follow them.” A same-day Digital Democracy committee transcript shows Bauer-Kahan saying the same language in the SB 53 hearing, corroborating authenticity. The stored author, date (2025-07-16), content, and source URL are consistent.
