The AI Kill Switch Act mandates entities operating high-cost AI systems to maintain shutdown capabilities and report incidents.
The AI Kill Switch Act amends the Homeland Security Act of 2002 to require entities operating certain artificial intelligence systems to maintain a technical capability to shut down such technology. These entities must report incidents to the Secretary of Homeland Security, who can order corrective actions. The bill defines "covered technology" as AI systems costing over $100 million in computing power and "covered entity" as those operating such technology.
