Role at the time: New York state senator and Internet 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.
“Chancellor Samuels should postpone these pilots until the tools can be properly assessed.”
Jointly authored criticism of NYC’s September 2 policy. They support the younger-grade ban but want current high-school pilots postponed pending assessment. This is one joint statement with two authors, not a response to the later Microsoft announcement.
Rejects proceeding with the current pilots; possible later assessed use does not change the present objection.

Statement summary
Gonzalez expresses alarm about biometric oversight after MSG excluded an attorney and calls for privacy regulation.
“If Madison Square Garden can use biometric technology to ban an attorney from its premises, what recourse is there for the average New Yorker? I'm alarmed by the lack of oversight regulating the use of biometric technologies by both private and public entities in the State.”
A state Senate release quotes lawmakers and S.T.O.P. opposing the exclusion of attorneys based on their employers' litigation. It includes requests for privacy safeguards and scrutiny of public benefits.
Archived copy (opens in a new tab)Reference point: MSG's policy of excluding lawyers at firms suing it. Gonzalez asks what recourse ordinary New Yorkers have if MSG can ban an attorney with biometric technology and says the lack of oversight is alarming. The question treats the exclusion as a misuse of the technology, so the statement is criticism. Mixed or conditional loses because Gonzalez expresses no support for any part of the practice.
