Bernie Sanders proposes banning ‘superintelligence’ and putting violators in prison

US politicians Bernie Sanders and Greg Casar have introduced a new bill banning the development of artificial superintelligence technologies that could pose a threat to the existence of humanity. The bill outlines prison sentences for developers who violate the rules.

Scope of the Bill

The Artificial Superintelligence Prohibition Act, introduced by Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Greg Casar, aims to prevent the development of technologies that could lead to the extinction of humanity.

Prison Sentences and Sanctions

According to the bill, leaders who develop artificial superintelligence systems that pose a danger to humanity and independent individuals who fail to comply with the rules could face up to twenty years in prison.

Department of Artificial Intelligence

Along with the bill, the development of advanced models exceeding a certain data threshold will be halted, and a new Department of Artificial Intelligence led by scientists is planned to be established to oversee the processes.

Sectoral Reactions and Debates

While concerns over the rapid development of artificial intelligence technologies continue to grow, Sanders argued that urgent and strict rules must be implemented against future risks, stating that major tech companies cannot be allowed to write their own rules.
