"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

Wiener’s SB 1031, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11988365/a-bill-to-save-bay-area-transit-from-fiscal-disaster-is-dead-at-least-for-now\">collapsed\u003c/a> amid a series of bitter disagreements, including what kind of tax should be imposed and how revenue would be distributed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If last year is any indication, SB 63, too, will be the subject of intensive negotiations before the details of the measure are finalized and can be placed on the November 2026 ballot. Even if it wins voter approval, the proposed tax measure will not be enough by itself to erase the deficits the Bay Area’s biggest transit agencies are facing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s unclear how much money the proposed three-county sales tax would raise, but the Metropolitan Transportation Commission has estimated that a four-county tax including San Mateo County would raise $560 million a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART is projecting deficits of more than $350 million a year starting in July 2026. Muni forecasts a yearly shortfall of more than $300 million. Deficits at AC Transit and Caltrain are smaller but erasing them would still require significant service cuts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To maintain transit operations at a level close to current levels, officials in San Francisco and at BART have discussed supplemental revenue measures that would also likely appear on ballots in 2026.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bay Area transit agencies have received billions of dollars in federal and state emergency funding to make up for fare revenue lost during the COVID-19 pandemic. But with that funding running out, transit operators, elected officials and transportation advocates across the region have been looking to a regional tax to avoid deep cuts in bus, train and ferry services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A regional measure has also been seen as a vehicle to pay for making transit more frequent, reliable and affordable across the region. It would do that not only by helping agencies purchase more vehicles, but by integrating fares and schedules among agencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Wiener’s SB 1031, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11988365/a-bill-to-save-bay-area-transit-from-fiscal-disaster-is-dead-at-least-for-now\">collapsed\u003c/a> amid a series of bitter disagreements, including what kind of tax should be imposed and how revenue would be distributed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If last year is any indication, SB 63, too, will be the subject of intensive negotiations before the details of the measure are finalized and can be placed on the November 2026 ballot. Even if it wins voter approval, the proposed tax measure will not be enough by itself to erase the deficits the Bay Area’s biggest transit agencies are facing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s unclear how much money the proposed three-county sales tax would raise, but the Metropolitan Transportation Commission has estimated that a four-county tax including San Mateo County would raise $560 million a year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>BART is projecting deficits of more than $350 million a year starting in July 2026. Muni forecasts a yearly shortfall of more than $300 million. Deficits at AC Transit and Caltrain are smaller but erasing them would still require significant service cuts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To maintain transit operations at a level close to current levels, officials in San Francisco and at BART have discussed supplemental revenue measures that would also likely appear on ballots in 2026.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bay Area transit agencies have received billions of dollars in federal and state emergency funding to make up for fare revenue lost during the COVID-19 pandemic. But with that funding running out, transit operators, elected officials and transportation advocates across the region have been looking to a regional tax to avoid deep cuts in bus, train and ferry services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A regional measure has also been seen as a vehicle to pay for making transit more frequent, reliable and affordable across the region. It would do that not only by helping agencies purchase more vehicles, but by integrating fares and schedules among agencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The language about AI in the contract wasn’t approved until the 11th hour, she said, “always knowing that we needed legislation to enforce some of the things that we talked about and our studio partners agreed to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The technology is advancing rapidly, she added. Just a few years ago, it was remarkable that her half-sister Carrie Fisher appeared posthumously in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker with a composite of unused footage from The Force Awakens and archival footage from the original trilogy. In that case, there was consent and compensation for the family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were able to use a synthetic performer, which is, like, terrible to even have that come out of my mouth,” Fisher said. But now, she continued, the more likely threat to creative artists is a synthesis of their work and others’ work. “We could all be put into one of the blenders, and they could spit out a character that is a little bit of all of us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Electronic Frontier Foundation and the California Chamber of Commerce oppose the legislation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“AB 412 imposes an impossible new regulatory regime that would cause devastating collateral damage for research and innovation,” said Becca Kramer of Kaiser Advocacy, testifying on behalf of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. She also warned the bill could unintentionally advantage Silicon Valley’s reigning giants. “Big Tech can afford the content licensing and legal teams to handle litigation over whether they made the reasonable efforts required by, but not defined, in the bill.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Assembly Privacy and Consumer Protection Committee approved AB 412, passing it to the Assembly Judiciary Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As chair of the consumer privacy and protection committee, Bauer-Kahan is in a pole position to push her bill and others regulating AI through to the governor’s desk. She and other California lawmakers, like state senate budget chair Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), have fired off a\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/technology/2025/03/ai-regulation-after-trump-election/\"> salvo of 30 bills\u003c/a> since the start of the legislative session.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a follow-up to last year when Gov.

The language about AI in the contract wasn’t approved until the 11th hour, she said, “always knowing that we needed legislation to enforce some of the things that we talked about and our studio partners agreed to.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The technology is advancing rapidly, she added. Just a few years ago, it was remarkable that her half-sister Carrie Fisher appeared posthumously in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker with a composite of unused footage from The Force Awakens and archival footage from the original trilogy. In that case, there was consent and compensation for the family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were able to use a synthetic performer, which is, like, terrible to even have that come out of my mouth,” Fisher said. But now, she continued, the more likely threat to creative artists is a synthesis of their work and others’ work. “We could all be put into one of the blenders, and they could spit out a character that is a little bit of all of us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Electronic Frontier Foundation and the California Chamber of Commerce oppose the legislation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“AB 412 imposes an impossible new regulatory regime that would cause devastating collateral damage for research and innovation,” said Becca Kramer of Kaiser Advocacy, testifying on behalf of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. She also warned the bill could unintentionally advantage Silicon Valley’s reigning giants. “Big Tech can afford the content licensing and legal teams to handle litigation over whether they made the reasonable efforts required by, but not defined, in the bill.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Assembly Privacy and Consumer Protection Committee approved AB 412, passing it to the Assembly Judiciary Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As chair of the consumer privacy and protection committee, Bauer-Kahan is in a pole position to push her bill and others regulating AI through to the governor’s desk. She and other California lawmakers, like state senate budget chair Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), have fired off a\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/technology/2025/03/ai-regulation-after-trump-election/\"> salvo of 30 bills\u003c/a> since the start of the legislative session.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s a follow-up to last year when Gov. Gavin Newsom signed more than 20 AI laws but vetoed others, including the\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12007087/california-blinks-governor-newsom-vetoes-ai-bill-aimed-at-catastrophic-harms\"> most high-profile bill by Wiener\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, Newsom convened the Joint California Policy Working Group on AI Frontier Models, which has just released an\u003ca href=\"https://www.cafrontieraigov.org\"> interim report\u003c/a> presenting a framework for the governance of AI models in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This report affirms with cutting-edge research that the rapid pace of technological advancement in AI means policymakers must act with haste to impose reasonable guardrails to mitigate foreseeable risks,” Sen. Wiener wrote in response, indicating another fight is underway between two of California’s most successful homegrown industries, with state lawmakers in the middle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED reporters and producers are represented by SAG-AFTRA.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
