Bernie Sanders is pushing a draft bill....that would immediately pause advanced AI development and in some way....ban superintelligence.
How he'd define superintelligence? Well....that is not very clear. I'm assuming you'd have a agency in charge....with some Presidential 'rule' to charge-up or charge-down intelligence.
I paused over this.
Would Japan, the EU, Russia, India and China also ban superintelligence? NO.
Would private groups in the US....build a AI just off-shore (say 20 miles) of the US and sell 'entry' to private Americans? YES.
Would 'evil' super-intelligence support folks go to Mexico....to establish their AI? YES.
Bernie....mostly saying that driving a 1970s AMC Gremlin should be the 'limit'? Well....yeah....comes to mind.
