Key Points

  • The bill asks the Department of Commerce to study how artificial intelligence (AI) can be built into the country's phone and internet systems. This includes looking at how AI can improve network speed and reliability for everyday users.
  • Experts will investigate how AI could help defend our communication systems from hackers and cyber threats. They will also look at what new skills workers in the telecommunications industry might need as these technologies change.
  • The government must release a draft of its findings within one year so the public can share their thoughts. A final report with recommendations on how to update old laws and work with local governments is due 18 months after the bill passes.
