Encode AI general counsel
As AI systems become more powerful and consequential, SB 53's requirements — greater transparency in safety practices and strong protections for AI whistleblowers — are critical to ensuring that safety is built into innovation from the very beginning, rather than treated as an afterthought.

Verified. Source URL (Senator Wiener's official sd11.senate.ca.gov page) returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but web search confirmed the quote verbatim and its attribution. Nathan Calvin, General Counsel (and VP of State Affairs) at Encode AI, stated: "As AI systems become more powerful and consequential, SB 53's requirements — greater transparency in safety practices and strong protections for AI whistleblowers — are critical to ensuring that safety is built into innovation from the very beginning, rather than treated as an afterthought." Correctly attributed; year 2025 is recent. Calvin is a leading SB 53 advocate (Encode worked on the bill). SB 53 includes mandatory critical-incident reporting. The vote "for" on statement #435 ("Mandate 72-hour reporting of critical AI safety incidents to a national authority") aligns with Calvin's strong support for AI safety transparency and reporting requirements.
