A California lawmaker will file a bill seeking to make generative AI models more transparent and start a discussion in the state on how to regulate the technology. California Senator Scott Wiener (D) has drafted a bill requiring “frontier” model systems, usually classified as large language models, to meet transparency standards when they reach above a certain quantity of computing power. Wiener’s bill will also propose security measures so AI systems don’t “fall into the hands of foreign states” and try to establish a state research center on AI outside of Big Tech.
The bill, which is classified as an intent bill and needs further development before it can pass, will also mandate AI labs to test models for safety risks and disclose to the state if safety risks are found. Wiener’s goal, per a statement sent to The Verge, is to start discussions on regulating AI.
California and Artificial Intelligence: To Be or Not To Be Meaningful Regulation?
California Weighed in below!
California AI safety bill blocked:
California Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed a controversial artificial intelligence safety bill that would have “laid the groundwork for how AI is regulated across the U.S.”
In a statement, Gov. Gavin Newsom said SB 1047 is “well-intentioned” but doesn’t consider whether AI is deployed in high – or low-risk situations, and would have applied to only the largest and most costly models.
AI Bill SB 1047 faced opposition from tech companies large and small, who warned that it would strangle innovation.
Newsom said he’s now collaborating with researchers including Fei-Fei Li to create more effective legislation.

California legislature passes AI bill SB 1047: https://www.linkedin.com/news/story/calif-legislature-passes-ai-bill-6144228/
An artificial intelligence safety bill was overwhelmingly approved by California legislators on Wednesday, September 25, 2024 and now heads to Gov. Gavin Newsom for final consideration. If enacted, the “fiercely debated” bill would require tech companies to safety-test AI programs before release and empower the attorney general to sue AI companies for any major harm caused by their technologies.
The bill earned cautious support from the likes and here are some of these reactions:
Elon Musk: “This is a tough call and will make some people upset, but, all things considered, I think California should probably pass the SB 1047 AI safety bill. For over 20 years, I have been an advocate for AI regulation, just as we regulate any product/technology that is a potential risk to the public.”

Governor Newsom announces new initiatives to advance safe and responsible AI, protect Californians: Sep 29, 2024
What you need to know:
Governor Newsom announced that the “godmother of AI,” Dr. Fei-Fei Li, as well as Tino Cuéllar, member of the National Academy of Sciences Committee on Social and Ethical Implications of Computing Research, and Jennifer Tour Chayes, Dean of the College of Computing, Data Science, and Society at UC Berkeley, will help lead California’s effort to develop responsible guardrails for the deployment of GenAI.
Governor Newsom also ordered state agencies to expand their assessment of the risks from potential catastrophic events.
The bill, introduced by Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco), would have required developers to submit their safety plans to the state attorney general, who could hold them liable if AI models they directly control were to cause harm or imminent threats to public safety.
Additionally, the legislation would have required tech firms to be able to turn off the AI models they directly control if things went awry.

Starbucks One Day, Will Be Creating a Subsidiary Named Starburritos
Change Management and Change of Leadership: Strategic Operational Innovation
Leadership Modeling
After graduating from Miami University in Ohio, Chipotle CEO Brian Niccol began his career in brand management at Procter & Gamble, where he worked for a decade.
In November 2005, he pivoted to food, where he’s been ever since.
Chipotle Mexican Grill tapped Niccol, then 44, for the top job in February 2018, when the brand was in crisis, weathering a lowered stock price, a drop in customers, and an unfortunate handful of foodborne illness outbreaks, which resulted in a $25 million federal fine.
On Tuesday, Starbucks named Niccol as CEO and chairman of the coffee chain, replacing Laxman Narasimhan after just over a year in the role.
Niccol starts his new role on Sept. 9, the company said in a statement.
The move of Brian Niccol from Chipotle to Starbucks without transition speaks loudly about the devotion and the sense of high fidelity of all the speeches made during the tenure of the CEO position in a given company that does not last and translate into staying with the same company for just building a successful enterprise that can be a model of loyalty and model of sincere adhesion to the principles expressed and presented as the beliefs of the leadership.
Leadership in America is similar to expanding a presence in a given market that is driven by the opportunities existing in the new territory, new market, or new opportunity.
Brian Niccol the New Electrifying Coffee Maker Jack of the Seven Trades Welch Unlike most of his subordinates, Brian Niccol also gets to work from a remote office in sunny Newport Beach, California. He agreed to commute to the coffee chain’s Seattle headquarters and travel as needed to do his job, the company said in a filing.
Niccol’s current employer, Chipotle Mexican Grill, is in Newport Beach, California. That’s where Starbucks will pay for a remote office to be set up about 1,000 miles from Seattle.
Niccol will keep hitting Golf balls nearby while White-collar employees at Starbucks were required at the beginning of 2023 to return to the office at least three days a week, a move that sparked backlash from some workers.
Americano is coming to Starbucks, Cinnamon and Chocolate will be at frontpage and some may be down the road, we have a touch of Tequila to perfume the new atmosphere welcoming the New Patron-Boss who will have a very tough job coming into a company furlough, store closings and to lay off half the workforce – First on line Unionized Barista and citifying the Drinks, then jumping out with a golden parachute, not from the Golden Gate but from Rossellini Bridge—Evergreen Point bridge while looking at the Stars along the beautiful view: Bellevue, Washington.
TRI CK USA – COFFEE BREAK – CASE-STUDY – STARBUCKS
Starbucks has made a huge faulty move already, by having picked the wrong CEO which is going to cost Starbucks dearly. Starbucks is poised to pony up a sum of money for at least $120 million, and perhaps millions more, to swap Laxman Narasimhan for Brian Niccol.
Do You Starbucks your Dark Sweet Hot Water Drink with Sirop Named Coughing High Priced Coofeenone Again:
Hyperinflated CEO pay is a tertiary symptom of capitalism’s malignancy.
Would $163 million that will be given to Brian Niccol be so sickening for you?
The sum is roughly 11,000 times more than the median Starbucks employee earns.
How much is this going to cost the Starbucks customer?
The cost of these Special Starbucks drinks is already exorbitant as is the case at Chipotle Mexican Grill
Very upset with the Chipotle portion size of a burrito $10 for this is just ridiculous
I will consider going elsewhere if they are going to continue with this
GO GET STARBURRITO OR STARBURO AT STARBUCKS
We have to keep in mind, that Chipotle is not Mexican Food, it is mesmerizing the competitors of the Taco Truck Chain and Taco Bell who run out of sight and grow like the mushrooms they use in their salads.
It is like Disneyland with Aladin is from Saudi Arabia or the Lion King is from the Savanah. And if you believe in that, you should consider Blanche Neige as an American Fable.
Brian Niccol at Chipotle and the Fight of the Salary Increase
Brian Niccol, as CEO of Chipotle Mexican Grill, has raised prices six times since 2021 and kept them high — even as costs flattened.
Corporate profits hit an all-time high in 2023. Profit margins were at levels not seen in decades. It just so happens that in 75% of US industries, fewer companies control more of the business than 20 years ago. Minimal competition means maximized price-gouging.
From Chipolte to Starbucks: From Pollo Loco to Cafeco Solo Americano
Starbucks did not hire the CEO of Chipotle for his good management competencies and skills, it was for his squeezing the drive through of the legislation that could increase the power to the workers and their representatives.
The rise in the California minimum wage from $16 to $20, which only affects fast food workers, equates to about a 20% jump for Chipotle labor costs in the state. To counteract lost profit margins, Chipotle raised menu prices by 6% to 7% in its roughly 500 California restaurants, compared to 2023 prices. The uptick affects menu-wide items and does not apply to Chipotle restaurants outside the Golden State.
California labor-cost increases, and subsequent higher menu prices, seem minimally impactful for Chipotle, considering its recent earnings report for the first quarter of 2024. The company revealed increased comparable restaurant sales of 7%, with a total revenue increase of 14.1%. The chain also opened 47 new fast-casual locations in that quarter alone, with plans for up to 315 more by year’s end. Nonetheless, Chipotle didn’t let California Assembly Bill 1228 take effect without a fight.
To counteract lost profit margins, Chipotle raised menu prices by 6% to 7% in its roughly 500 California restaurants, compared to 2023 prices. The uptick affects menu-wide items and does not apply to Chipotle restaurants outside the Golden State. Apr 28, 2024
Chipotle and its fast-food cohorts across the state successfully obtained a ballot referendum for 2024, raising $71.8 million, partially in loans by outside interests. However, an eventual compromise evolved into the new AB 1228 legislation, which includes the $20 minimum fast-food wage and the establishment of the Fast Food Council. The law is now officially in effect, resulting in an estimated overall increase of 10% in menu costs, and counting, across dozens of California fast-casual chains. That comes on the heels of a reported 29% rise in fast food prices nationwide over four years since 2019.
So the Taco Truck had to move out of sight and hide near liquor stores and gas stations, or parks, or driving Miss Carlota and Jose Crazy going around the blocks looking for construction sites.
Taco Bell could not cross the border anymore, stuck by the flood of immigrants at the Sacred Walled border from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Therefore, Chipotle had empty lands where to grow a culture of middle-class managers still identifying the cultural diversity in food taking. They can eat “Mexican Food with California Touch” and learn and speak Spanglish from the menu.

Since my early studies at Institut des Etudes Politiques of the Grenoble University, the development, and integration of Africa were at the forefront of my studies and topics of my presentations in seminaries and essay papers.

I extended the invitation to Dr. Boubacar N’diaye for his presence among us at this International Conference on Africa. He was delighted about my presentation and we also sat together and had lunch at the same table. Wonderful Man with full love for Africa and Africans and who initiated a series of important financial and operational measures: the African Businessmen Round Table, the creation of the African Bank for import-export (Afreximbank), and the setting up of special easy financing for the African private sector (investors and entrepreneurs) without the guarantee of their governments.

Research on NAFTA conducted in Mexico and Published by Golden Gate University, San Francisco, California where Dr. Cherkaoui was Adjunct Associate Professor from 1987 to 2001
Canada, the United States and Mexico signed a new North American trade agreement to replace NAFTA on November 30, 2018. The CUSMA (or USMCA in the U.S.) came into force in Canada in July 2020. This new agreement goes by a different name in each of the three countries that signed it. While known as CUSMA in Canada, it is called the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA, south of the border. In Mexico, people call it T-MEC, reflecting the Spanish name of the treaty.
Many think of CUSMA as NAFTA 2.0—and with good reason. CUSMA and NAFTA are very similar agreements in terms of general concepts. CUSMA continues the work of NAFTA and was negotiated using NAFTA as a baseline. That said, the two agreements do differ in significant ways. It is not for nothing that CUSMA runs to 1500 pages—more than double NAFTA’s page count of 741.
Since July 1, 2020, NAFTA has been replaced by a new free trade agreement CUSMA. As an importer, exporter and manufacturer, for your shipments which will be customs cleared on or after July 1, 2020, you are no longer be able to claim the NAFTA preferential treatment in Canada, the United States or Mexico. From this date on, for products “originating” in North America, you will have to claim a preferential treatment under the new CUSMA treaty.
AS OF JULY 1, customs authorities (e.g. CBSA and U.S. CBP) will not accept a NAFTA Certificate of Origin to claim the CUSMA “duty-free” treatment. For your 2020 blanket certificates of origin, prepared according to NAFTA, these will apply up to June 30, 2020, only. Effective July 1, the product must be certified as an “originating” good per a CUSMA Certification of Origin.
Unlike NAFTA, the new agreement does not call for a prescribed form. Instead, CUSMA requires a Certification of Origin, which can be included on a commercial invoice or a separate document, insofar as this new Certification contains all the mandatory minimum data elements set out in Chapter 5 / Annex 5-A of CUSMA.
Previous sample of the trilaterally agreed upon form used by Canada, Mexico, and the United States to certify that goods qualify for the preferential tariff treatment accorded by CUSMA. The Certificate of Origin must be completed by the exporter.
To allow W2C to apply the “duty-free” treatment under CUSMA to your products that will be customs cleared on or after July 1, W2C must be in possession of a valid CUSMA Certification of Origin, included either on the commercial invoice, Canada Customs Invoice or Proforma Invoice; or included on a CUSMA Certificate of Origin template of any format that contains all of the prescribed minimum data elements.
W2C has developed a CUSMA Certification of Origin template which you can access via the “Resources” tab available on our website: https://w2c.ca/en/resources/.
Also be advised that the “Rules of Origin” (NAFTA vs. CUSMA) for several products (HS Codes), have changed. Before goods produced in Canada, the United States or Mexico can be certified on a Certification of Origin, they must qualify as an “originating” product under the “Rules of Origin” of the new CUSMA agreement. A product previously certified under NAFTA is not valid if imported/exported on or after July 1. Such a product must be re-qualified and re-certified under the new CUSMA rules.
PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meek and mild during our @G7 meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that, “US Tariffs were kind of insulting” and he “will not be pushed around.” Very dishonest & weak. Our Tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy! –

All the pleasure is for my definition of human relationships and joy as my first name indicates to offer you such a shortcut around the World of Business and Regional Human Cultures, which is in fact only the end of the Atlas – The Peak of the Atlas Mountain – the Place of the Birth of my Own Ancestors.

Thus, my roles and office functions were more and encompassed more of the single and simple honorable profession of an actor or director but embraced realistic and surrealistic aspects of global scope while identifying in the panorama of the territorial affairs of California and the United States of America – Designed in California and Made in the USA and presented by Said Cherkaoui Ph.D..
While the international scene and framework on which I continue to this day my stagings and performances remain direct, spontaneous, derived, and driven by my deep desire to lay foundations of rapprochement and bridges of communications between countries distant entities, neighboring entities, and distant organizations as well as individuals from various similar and non-identical backgrounds.

Alors que la scène et la trame internationales sur laquelle je continues jusqu’à ce jour mes mises en scéne et performances demeurent directes, spontanées, dérivées et conduites par mon profond désir d’étaler des fondations de rapprochement et des ponts de communications entre les contrées lointaines, les entités voisines et les organisations distantes ainsi que les individus de divers horizons similaires et non identiques.
I contributed lot to the San Francisco World Trade Center and the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce et cela pour des decennies tant a San Francisco qu’a Oakland en Californie, avec mon travail et mes réalisations sur le plan international durant la période ou j’ai été dans le CITD et que depuis lors je continues a voguer par dela les horizons du Pacifique et autres rivages en ce temps proche dans la conjugaison et distant dans l’expression.

Investment Attraction: Dr. Cherkaoui contributes to job creation, economic diversification, and overall prosperity by actively encouraging investment in African nations. His commitment to attracting both local and foreign investment can lead to sustainable growth and improved living conditions for African communities.
Trade Enhancement: Facilitating cross-border trade is essential for Africa’s economic resilience. Dr. Cherkaoui’s expertise in this area helps bridge gaps and fosters collaboration.
Empowering Education: Dr. Cherkaoui’s work indirectly supports education by promoting economic growth. As economies thrive, educational opportunities expand.
Empowering young women and men through education is a critical step toward sustainable development.
Poverty Alleviation: Sustainable economic development directly impacts poverty reduction. Dr. Cherkaoui’s efforts contribute to lifting communities out of poverty. By creating an enabling environment for investment and trade, he helps address the root causes of poverty.
Resilience and Collaboration: Discussions on sustainable growth and resilience are vital for Africa’s future. Dr. Cherkaoui’s expertise shapes these discussions, encouraging collaboration across borders and sectors. His holistic approach to Africa’s development underscores the interconnectedness of economic, social, and cultural factors. His work inspires hope and progress, and his legacy will continue to impact future generations.
Dr. Said El Mansour Cherkaoui, a distinguished figure in international affairs and business strategy, has significantly contributed to discussions on power and energy challenges in Africa. Let’s delve into some of his research and works:

Dr. Cherkaoui’s research sheds light on Ghana’s energy landscape. As Ghana aims to modernize and expand its energy grid, it faces the dual challenge of meeting current demand and anticipating future needs.
Ghana’s energy mix includes hydropower, fossil fuels, and renewable energy sources. Notably, the country combines hydropower with solar power in the same location, serving as a model for other African nations.
This strategic approach can inspire solutions to address recurrent droughts and climate change swings across the continent.

I was the Director of Graduate Business Programs at the Dominican University of San Rafael when Dr. Cherkaoui was teaching in our international MBA program. Said brought not only a solid academic background to the classroom but also a wealth of business experience both in the US and in Asia and Latin America. He is passionate about his students and his work outside the classroom. This made him one of the most effective faculty that we had teaching at the time.
Dr. Said Cherkaoui is an exceptional figure in international business development. His broad range of expertise covers all ranges of economic development, with such accomplishments in international trade consulting, trade missions, and small business development, just to name a few.Dr. Cherkaoui has successfully conducted numerous trade missions, represented U.S. companies at trade shows, and helped companies develop their businesses overseas. His academic works have a significant contribution to the global business community, executives in world trade, and entrepreneurs.
I worked with Dr. Cherkaoui at the East Bay Center for International Trade Development. Always a role model and source of influence, Dr. Cherkaoui possesses extensive hands-on experience in a wide range of industries, as well as academic achievements, in the field of international trade and economic development.
