Ted Cruz, Notable Human Man, Launches Investigation Into Artificial Intelligence

Senator Ted Cruz, long believed to be a human man, will hold Congressional hearings about artificial intelligence tomorrow. And while Gizmodo has yet to confirm or deny the rumors that Ted Cruz is trying to build his own Westworld-style amusement park, we're sure everything is fine. The hearings are titled "The Dawn of Artificial Intelligence," and will include testimony from representatives of Microsoft, Carnegie Mellon University, and NASA, among others. The majority of speakers listed for tomorrow seem pretty optimistic about the future of AI, including Dr. Eric Horvitz of Microsoft. "There have been concerns about the long-term prospect that we lose control of certain kinds of intelligences," Dr. Horvitz told the BBC last year.
