Liability already exists under common law and provides a powerful incentive for AI companies to take reasonable steps to prevent foreseeable risks from their AI systems. SB 3444 would take the extreme step of nearly eliminating liability for severe harms.

Source_url (breitbart.com) returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but I confirmed the quote verbatim via web search. Thomas Woodside, cofounder/senior policy adviser at the Secure AI Project, is quoted: "Liability already exists under common law and provides a powerful incentive for AI companies to take reasonable steps to prevent foreseeable risks from their AI systems" and SB 3444 "would take the extreme step of nearly eliminating liability for severe harms." (The quote originated in WIRED and is reported by the Breitbart secondary source; the secondary source faithfully contains the quote.) Author attribution (Secure AI Project co-founder) is correct. Year 2026 is correct. Vote "for" correctly aligns with statement #395 ("AI companies should be liable for harms caused by their deployed models") — Woodside defends existing AI liability and opposes a bill that would shield AI companies from it, i.e., he supports AI company liability.
