Greg Murphy (R-NC) said that “We absolutely should be worried about” AI warnings, there are warnings from “really smart people, not people with political proclivities that are pushing one way or the other.” And “I do believe it’s something that we need to take the reins of, and I think it needs to be done right now.” Murphy said, “This has to be a human-controlled loop.
