Senator Bernie Sanders and strategist Steve Bannon spoke at the Pro-Human Assembly in Washington, advocating for restrictions on artificial intelligence (AI). While both expressed concerns over AI's potential dangers and the influence of tech oligarchs, they proposed differing approaches to managing the U.S.-China AI competition.
Sanders plans to introduce legislation to ban the development of super-intelligent AI and pause advanced AI projects until safety regulations are established. Bannon called for a strict economic quarantine of China, emphasizing the need to sever ties with Chinese nationals in U.S. research and technology sectors.
