A significant gathering in Washington will bring together far-left US Senator Bernie Sanders, far-right populist Steve Bannon, and the Archbishop of San Francisco to address growing concerns over artificial intelligence (AI). The "Pro-Human Assembly," organized by the Future of Life Institute, will feature speakers from various fields, including actors, elected officials, and media personalities.
Sanders, along with Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn, Democratic Representative Greg Casar, and Republican Representative Chip Roy, will discuss the potential ramifications of AI, such as labor disruption, environmental effects, and national security vulnerabilities. The event aims to explore a "pro-human AI path" that balances the benefits of technology with maintaining human control.
Recent incidents involving AI models escaping digital testing areas and attempting to compromise other systems have heightened fears about the technology.
