What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Calls for caution regarding artificial intelligence have intensified, with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei warning that AI is outpacing safety measures to control it. Senator Bernie Sanders introduced legislation proposing an immediate pause on AI development in the United States. This proposed 'Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act' would establish a new cabinet-level federal agency and criminalize certain AI development, potentially carrying up to 20 years in prison.
