"A recent Executive Order on AI directed the Justice Department to create a Litigation Task Force to challenge state AI rules deemed inconsistent with federal policy, including on grounds that such laws unconstitutionally burden interstate commerce or are preempted by existing federal regulations."
"Freddie Mac estimates a shortage of 3.7 million housing units nationwide, and Realtor.com puts the gap at over 4 million homes, explicitly linking the shortfall to zoning rules, permitting delays, and regulatory barriers."
"While establishing reasonable rules around short-term rentals makes sense, chasing technology used to manage them out of town does not."
Artificial intelligence is transitioning into a new phase of regulation, influenced by federal initiatives like the Executive Order on AI. This order mandates the Justice Department to challenge state AI regulations that conflict with federal policies. AI enhances operational efficiency across various sectors, especially in travel. However, local legislators often target AI technologies, particularly in rental markets, to address housing affordability issues. The real cause of high rents is a lack of housing supply, not technology. Addressing zoning and regulatory barriers is essential for resolving housing shortages.
