A newly passed US congressional budget bill features significant shifts in policy, including implications for both artificial intelligence and clean energy initiatives. While initial proposals included a 10-year moratorium on state-level AI regulation, lawmakers ultimately rejected this provision after considerable debate. The final bill, however, does impact the clean energy sector, phasing out electric vehicle tax credits and raising barriers for wind and solar companies seeking tax incentives, as reported by The Verge. The budget package also includes cuts to social services and expanded measures for mass deportations.
