ChainCatcher News: New York State proposes a bill to ban AI from answering questions in professional fields such as medicine, law, dentistry, nursing, psychology, and engineering.

According to related interpretations, this action is not fundamentally about protecting the public, but rather “an industry charging $500 per hour using politicians to protect its knowledge monopoly.” Lawyers don’t want users to know that AI can draft contracts in 30 seconds, doctors don’t want users to know that AI can interpret blood reports better than residents, and engineers don’t want users to know that AI can review your design sketches overnight. New York’s proposed ban on AI answering professional questions is not about protecting users but about protecting their business.
