House demands AI update from Pentagon as threats from China, other adversaries pile up

Investigative reporter Michael Shellenberger shares details from sources who allege that the U.S. government has "non-human spacecraft" on "Jesse Watters Primetime." Members of the House Armed Services Committee are demanding several updates from the Pentagon on whether it is effectively using artificial intelligence to defend against growing threats from China and other adversaries. The committee on Monday released its annual proposal for the defense policy bill known as the National Defense Authorization Act, which will be considered by various subcommittees starting Tuesday. The section of the bill that deals with cyber and information technology was accompanied by several demands for updates on the Defense Department's efforts to incorporate AI into its national security posture. One of these demands relates directly to China, which the committee said has an increasing presence in disputed waters around the world that threatens U.S. national security.
