Democrats from the United States House of Representatives have formed a working group on artificial intelligence aimed at introducing new legislation around the nascent tech sector. <\/p>\n

The 97-member New Democrat Coalition announced<\/a> its AI working group on Aug. 15, stating it would work with President Joe Biden\u2019s administration, stakeholders and lawmakers from both sides of the political arena to develop \u201csensible, bipartisan policies to address this emerging technology.\u201d<\/p>\n

The group will focus on a range of issues including how best to leverage AI for growth while still ensuring that workers who stand to lose their jobs as a result of AI can remain employed.<\/p>\n

\n

Artificial Intelligence is the biggest technological threat we’ve faced since the invention of the atomic bomb.<\/p>\n

I am proud to be a part of the @NewDemCoalition<\/a>‘s AI Working Group to assess the dangers and opportunities posed by AI and develop a framework to regulate it. https:\/\/t.co\/99hGdHgb7x<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 Rep. Seth Moulton (@RepMoulton) August 15, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Representative Derek Kilmer will serve as chair of the AI working group and told<\/a> CNBC the primary focus of the working group was to crack down on the spread of misinformation and aired concerns on advanced AI-generated deepfakes<\/a> becoming increasingly prevalent online.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s real concern about the potential for AI generated disinformation, real concern about misuse of advanced AI models.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s the type of thing that requires Congress to get smart and get smart fast,\u201d Kilmer added.<\/p>\n

\n

Artificial intelligence is the next great frontier of technological advancement.<\/p>\n

And we\u2019re already seeing how breakthroughs in this emerging technology present both great opportunities and challenges with potential disruptions for workers, democracy, and national security. https:\/\/t.co\/hflVef6k9Y<\/a><\/p>\n

Lawmakers, academics and top tech CEOs have all signaled the need<\/a> to reign in on the potential dangers raised by AI.<\/p>\n

In May, Vice President Kamala Harris, along with Biden\u2019s top advisers,\u00a0held a meeting<\/a> with several AI industry CEOs to discuss concerns about the risks associated with AI.<\/p>\n

In June, President Biden held a meeting with experts<\/a> in AI in Silicon Valley to discuss a similar subject. <\/p>\n
