Since the November 2022 release of ChatGPT, generative AI has been a regulatory accelerator for governance of AI writ large. Individuals, organizations, industries, and governments across the world have grappled with the implications of AI, including how it is and could be regulated using existing and new legal frameworks. For example, since our December 2023 update:

  • The EU passed the AI Act, regulating artificial intelligence and outlining a risk-based approach to the deployment and use of AI systems
  • Numerous US states have introduced and passed legislation regarding AI (often with nationwide implications), with a focus on deepfakes, education, liability for chatbots, intellectual property, health insurance and employment decisions, and the establishment of commissions and grants; for example:
    • The California legislature introduced AB2930, which would regulate both developers and deployers of “automated decision tools”
    • Colorado passed the Artificial Intelligence Act (CAIA)
    • Tennessee passed the Ensuring Likeness Voice and Image Security (ELVIS) Act
  • Federal agencies completed the 30-, 60-, 90-, and 180-day actions in response to President Biden’s October 2023 Executive Order
  • Global powers like Australia, China, Japan, and Singapore have issued new AI frameworks and guidelines, with a divide between countries that are taking a market-driven approach and those that aren't, creating separate paradigms for developers and deployers of AI with global reach


With the launch of Crowell’s Evolving AI Legal and Policy Landscape tracker last year, we formed a team of attorneys and CMI professionals tasked with monitoring and reporting on the most notable developments around AI. Join us for a roundtable discussion regarding worldwide legal and policy developments over the past six months and what you need to know going into the second half of 2024.

Terminations, Stop Work Orders, and De-Scopes – The Latest Updates and Recovery Opportunities for USAID Contractors and Grant Recipients

In 2025, the U.S. Government’s policy statements and Executive Orders have had far-reaching impacts for government contractors and grant recipients. Although terminations, stop work orders, and de-scopes have affected private companies, non-profits, and universities doing business across multiple agencies, the U.S. Government’s policies relating to the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has caused particular confusion and uncertainty relating to performance, compliance, and contractual procedure. Key questions have included the potential impacts of official and less formal communications from the U.S. Government, procedural issues arising from the move of certain functions to the U.S. Department of State, and the effect of various pending litigations. As businesses and organizations plan for 2026, the importance of preserving their rights and maximizing potential recovery opportunities remains paramount.
