Bernie's AI bill proposes to sentence AI developers to 20 years in prison A social media post by venture capitalist Justine Moore flagged that Senator Bernie Sanders' proposed AI bill would sentence developers and researchers working on "advanced AI" to 20 years in prison. The post questions whether Sanders would bar AI researchers from leaving the country if he believes the technology poses the threat the bill implies. Justine Moore on X: "Damn somehow I missed that Bernie's AI bill proposes to sentence developers & researchers working on "advanced AI" to 20 years in prison " I wonder if he’d try to keep AI researchers in the country or let them leave… if he truly believes what he’s saying, I think he’d have to keep researchers from leaving the country..
