Lawmakers sound the alarm on AI's impact on children, jobs [View all]

Some lawmakers are sounding the alarm about the impact of artificial intelligence on Americans, including children, as the technology becomes increasingly common.

In separate interviews on CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday, Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Katie Britt (R-Ala.) warned of the dangers AI can have on American democracy and called for technology companies to face accountability for their creations.

"This is the most consequential technology in the history of humanity,” Sanders told host Jake Tapper. “It will transform our country. It will transform the world."

Sanders indicated he is concerned that those interested in creating or controlling AI — including Elon Musk — are only doing so to become richer.
