Why Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon are agreeing on AI
Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon’s odd AI alliance shows regulation debates now cross party lines, but Washington remains stuck and legislation is stalled.
WASHINGTON doesn’t usually see progressive politician Bernie Sanders and Republican strategist Steve Bannon share a podium.
But that’s what happened in September, when the Vermont socialist and the former Trump strategist appeared together at a rally warning that the race towards “artificial superintelligence” has outrun anyone’s ability to control it.
Their alliance, however odd it looks, is really the clearest symptom yet of what’s happening to artificial intelligence policy in Washington: The debate has stopped sorting neatly along party lines, even as the machinery for doing anything about it remains stuck.
