Senator Bernie Sanders and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are supporting two new AI bills, one aimed at putting a federal moratorium on the construction of data centers. The bill, the AI Data Center Moratorium Act, aims to slow down the development of AI and give Congress a chance to properly regulate the technology. It includes an immediate moratorium on AI data centers until national safeguards are in place to ensure that AI is safe and effective and won't harm health, privacy, civil rights, and the future of humanity. Additionally, the bill calls for regulation that ensures that the economic gains of AI will benefit workers, not just the wealthy owners of Big Tech, and laws to protect the environment and prevent increased electricity prices for communities.
