Brian similarly opposed state regulation of the technology.

"I think it would be a big overreach," he told Fox News. 

Despite AI's rapid advancement in recent years, no federal legislation focused on protecting individuals from the technology's potential harms appeared imminent as of March 22, according to a Brookings Institution report. A handful of federal agencies, including the Federal Trade Commission, the Food and Drug Administration and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, are regulating some forms of corporate AI use through laws already in place, the New York Times reported March 3.

"When you talk about whether or not the government is playing a role, really we're looking at laws and regulations," the lawyer told Fox News. "AI is going to be something that's going to cover a lot of different areas of law, including copyright, trademark … estate planning."
