Bernie Sanders and Greg Casar just introduced the "Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act."
The bill bans any AI that "exhibits or can easily be modified to exhibit capabilities that match or exceed human cognitive performance" or has "sufficient capabilities to plan and execute the disempowerment of humanity."
Violators face "the corporate death penalty" and up to 20 years in prison.
