Bloomfield flags First Amendment issues with proposed AI biosecurity training restrictions but argues targeted controls could pass constitutional muster.

Core tension: balancing free speech rights (access to truthful information) vs. preventing dual-use AI models from enabling bioweapon design.

Key stance: Not advocating blanket training bans. Instead, suggests narrowly scoped rules that address specific threats without crushing open research or legitimate use cases.

This matters because any compute/model restrictions will face legal challenges. The debate isn't whether to regulate, but how to write rules that survive court review while actually stopping bad actors from fine-tuning LLMs on pathogen synthesis data.
