Musk's push to halt AI development makes no sense unless China is on board, GOP senator says

Fox News contributor Douglas Murray joined'Fox & Friends' to discuss why Musk and other experts are calling for a halt to artificial intelligence systems for six months. The top Republican on the Senate Artificial Intelligence Caucus warned Wednesday that pausing the development of AI technology could raise "national security" concerns on the same day that top tech industry giants called for a pause. In an open letter earlier in the day, tech industry giants like Tesla founder Elon Musk and Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak called on AI labs "to immediately pause for at least 6 months the training of AI systems" more advanced than the latest chatbot known as GPT-4. But Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., who leads the Senate AI caucus, disagreed. "Unless China, the Communist Party in China, is prepared to show evidence that they're going to do the same thing, I'm afraid then that we would be restricting our ability to move forward with AI for a period of six months while China does not," Rounds told Fox News Digital.
