Greenfield School Committee votes against AI regulation

Franklin County Now · · International · AI Governance

The Greenfield School Committee voted against adopting AI regulation, according to a report from Franklin County Now. No further details about the proposed policy or the vote margin were provided.

Why this matters: A school committee voting down AI rules is not a minor local story. Schools collect a lot of data on children, and AI tools used in classrooms can affect how kids are taught, assessed, and tracked. Choosing not to regulate means staff and vendors can keep using these tools with fewer guardrails. Parents in Greenfield now have less formal protection than they might have expected. The decision not to act is still a decision, and the kids in those classrooms live with it.

Black Hat State of Security Vendors

Andy Ellis has a roundup of the security vendors at Black Hat this year. Key Takeaways: We have entered into an AI world. While nearly half of booths didn’t directly mention AI or agents in their taglines, the effects of AI are everywhere. Multiple spaces (Identity, SaaS, AppSec, Data) have almost every vendor leading with AI; existing unsolved problem areas just got worse. At the same time, there’s a clear trichotomy in the market: tools that tell you how bad things are; tools that stop adversaries, and tools that prevent problems from occurring. While you’d suspect that the tools that fix t…
