Congress Debates AI Regulation Amid Warnings of Public Safety Risks

Nobel Peace Prize laureate Maria Ressa has urged Congress to legislate on artificial intelligence now, stating it's a "public safety issue" and warning that without regulation, AI could become "beyond our control." Congressman Greg Casar also called for the U.S. to lead AI diplomacy to end an AI arms race, while Senator Bernie Sanders criticized Congress for being "asleep at the wheel" on the issue.
