Senate takes first steps to regulate AI in annual defense bill

Fox News anchor Julie Banderas reacts to the vice president's gaffe and CNN calling Dylan Mulvaney a man on "Jesse Watters Primetime." The Senate this week took some initial steps toward regulating the use of artificial intelligence in the government as senators from both parties indicated they would push for amendments to the annual defense policy bill that seek to put some guardrails on the rapidly advancing technology. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said he is pushing for this year's National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) to contains a package of several amendments that includes one addressing several issues related to AI and national security. Among the measures being proposed in the AI amendment is a "bug bounty" system that would encourage white-hat hackers to help the Defense Department find vulnerabilities in the AI systems they use. This is an idea that Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., has worked on for more than a year.
