Rep. Yass Ansari cited Anthropic researchers Jacob Coxon and Evan Hubinger (formerly OpenAI), claiming the labs are building technology that could "kill us all by the end of the decade," and urged the federal government to pass Rep. Casar's bill halting new advanced AI development. The retweeter is openly skeptical, calling the coordinated push another round of AI "slopaganda."
