Congress Urged to Increase AI Oversight and Funding for Responsible Development
-
Congressional legislation should mandate disclosure of AI use, starting with federal agencies. People have a right to know when algorithms influence opportunities.
-
Congress should investigate AI's environmental impact. With data, financial incentives could reduce unnecessary AI use.
-
Congress should substantially increase funding for responsible AI research, education, and training to evaluate bias and enhance fairness.
-
Commercial entities profiting from AI should allocate profits to responsible AI efforts. An AI tax could fund oversight.
-
Congress has a duty to enact visionary legislation harnessing AI benefits while mitigating harms, before catastrophic or irreversible damage.
