“Let us be clear: AI and robotics are the most transformative technologies in the history of humanity,” Sanders declares. “Just a few points we need to think about: one, who is aggressively pushing these technologies? ““Question: if AI and robotics eliminate millions of jobs and create massive unemployment, how will people survive if they have no income?” the Vermont Senator challenges. “Very few members of Congress are seriously thinking about this.”I will be pushing for a moratorium on the construction of data centers that are powering the unregulated sprint to develop & deploy AI. “One thing’s for sure: this process is moving very, very, quickly, and we need to slow it down,” Sanders said.
