AI Now’s Aya Ibrahim says voluntary AI deals are not enough
AINowInstitute · x · 2026-07-28
AI Now Institute senior fellow Aya Ibrahim discusses why voluntary agreements between governments and industry are limited, argues that AI should be treated as a tool rather than a replacement for human knowledge and ability, and notes that voters are increasingly opposing new data centers in their communities.
The segment is less about a specific regulation and more about the broader social and governance debate around the AI boom, including public resistance to its physical footprint.
