Several members of the US Congress have proposed legislation to restrict the development of highly advanced artificial intelligence systems. If passed, the proposals would introduce strict restrictions and severe penalties for companies and individuals that violate the rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to NBC News, US lawmakers Bernie Sanders and Jasmine Crockett have proposed a broad ban on the development of highly advanced AI systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The proposals focus on concerns about technologies that could repeatedly improve their own capabilities and eventually surpass human control in terms of computing power and decision-making. The proposal also calls for the creation of a special federal body to oversee the artificial intelligence sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Under the proposed legislation, violations could carry penalties including up to 20 years in prison and the seizure of equipment used to develop such systems. The proposal has meanwhile drawn mixed reactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some people working in the AI sector have called for swift action to address the potential risks of the technology, while critics say parts of the proposal are unclear and could face legal challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the same time, several other US senators have proposed different approaches to regulating artificial intelligence, including federal standards, independent testing and international cooperation to identify potential risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The debate over how to regulate artificial intelligence in the United States continues amid disagreements among lawmakers, technology companies and experts over the scope of restrictions and how the technology should be overseen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
