Senate's Rush To Regulate AI Chatbots Is Bad For Everybody
Senate's Rush To Regulate AI Chatbots Is Bad For Everybody Authored by John Coleman via RealClearPolitics, The dawn of the AI era has sparked a wide range of reactions, from exhilaration over the technology’s capabilities to deep distress.  Such responses to a new communicative tool are nothing new, and indeed, AI presents new and unique challenges that will require deep thought and sensitivity.
