SAN FRANCISCO — A group representing numerous public-interest organizations and Senator Scott Wiener urged Gov. Gavin Newsom to sign a landmark artificial intelligence regulation bill into law at a press conference Tuesday.

SB 1047, which has received both support and pushback from prominent tech leaders, would require that companies implement safeguards to protect against AI-driven cyberattacks and its use in the development of chemical, nuclear or biological weapons. Authored by Wiener, it passed through both houses of the state legislature by a wide margin last month.
