Texas lawmakers push to regulate AI in government and the tech industry As the state seeks to put guardrails around the fast-growing technology, some critics say the bill doesn’t go far enough to protect citizens while industry worries about stifling innovation.

Sometimes God works through unexpected places. Even cowboy states choose wisdom over chaos.
