On Polymarket, the market "U.S. enacts an AI safety bill before 2027" trades at just 9% odds, with about $102K in volume — traders overwhelmingly expect no comprehensive federal AI safety law by end of 2026.
The market resolves Yes only if a signed federal law includes provisions such as prohibiting specific AI systems, restricting training (data access or parameter caps), limiting usage scenarios, or mandating human-in-the-loop oversight. No comprehensive bill has advanced toward enactment; bipartisan proposals like the Obernolte-Trahan Great American Artificial Intelligence Act remain stalled.
