Congress has yet to resume its session and return to Washington, but some lawmakers were strongly shocked by a series of severe AI security warnings issued by an Anthropic researcher who is about to leave office. The researcher said, “Practitioners who are serious about developing artificial intelligence sincerely believe that by the end of this decade, AI may destroy all of humanity.” Sources said that the AI security bill co-drafted by Senator Amy Klobuchar of the Democratic Party of Minnesota, Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, and Senate Majority Leader John Thune is the only viable plan that is expected to be implemented before 2027. The bill may be submitted as early as next week. Klobuchar issued a statement saying that she is pushing for a bipartisan consensus to enact “a bill to establish a reasonable regulatory bottom line and deal with the risks posed by AI systems... Obviously, we must act now, we cannot wait.” Cruzer posted on social networking platform X, saying that he is working with Klobchar and Thun to draft a bill to deal with the catastrophic risks of AI involving biological and nuclear threats. Frontier AI Laboratories and civic advocacy groups have provided feedback to the National Assembly staff on the draft bill, which has not yet been disclosed. Although this bipartisan Senate bill has received increasing support from behind the scenes, progressive lawmakers have taken a stand and advocated a stricter regulatory plan.
