Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon urge US to regulate artificial intelligence
Senator Bernie Sanders and former strategist Steve Bannon are calling for stricter oversight of artificial intelligence in the United States.
Concerns over job losses and control
The two figures argue that advanced AI could remove tens of millions of jobs. They also warn about a loss of control over powerful systems and rising energy prices. Current government approaches are criticized for being too light on regulation.
Call for international agreement with China
Sanders urges President Trump to discuss pausing advanced AI development during a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping. This proposal aligns with legislation seeking a permanent ban on artificial superintelligence and temporary pauses on other advanced models.
Need for new federal regulator
The proposed laws would establish a new federal AI regulator to manage these risks. Both politicians want international agreements to prevent biological warfare and concentrated power among a few giants.
