Carmen De La Rosa is a New York City Council member representing District 10, which includes Washington Heights, Inwood and Marble Hill.
Case
Microsoft and teachers’ unions promote enforceable school-AI safeguards. Fairplay’s Josh Golin wants a five-year pause, while New York City permits restricted high-school pilots. Critics of those pilots say they should wait for evidence and assessment criteria.
Role at the time: New York City Council member and Technology Committee chair
Response to this claim
New York City should postpone its current high-school AI pilots until the tools can be assessed against clear criteria.
“Recorded action: De La Rosa co-authored the September 2 statement urging postponement of NYC’s high-school AI pilots.”
Rejects the current rollout. The co-authored statement is shared with Gonzalez’s record, not a second independent comment.
