I think this will be very helpful for society, and people will have the guidance after this on how to use the AI and all.

"The legislation would permanently prohibit artificial superintelligence, which it defines as a system that exceeds human cognitive ability or has sufficient capabilities to plan and execute the destruction or disempowerment of humanity."

Wow huge miss by Bernie. I mean in many areas models from a year ago were above and beyond most human's cognivity, or at least in rote memorization of a wide variety of facts.

Not to mention, he says ban, but realistically it means to take away from regular people and the government and corporations with licenses keep using it.

I really do feel like this is going the way of the Second Amendment. I wonder if there is grounds to have a right to use AI as a defensive means.
