Summary
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has called for immediate congressional action to regulate artificial intelligence, citing warnings that unchecked AI could pose risks to humanity. His call comes after AI industry leaders urged a slowdown in development, contrasting with Donald Trump's stance on accelerating AI to compete with China. Jeffries urged Speaker Mike Johnson to address AI safety legislation before Congress adjourns, and also endorsed the bipartisan Ratepayer Protection Act.
