Dozens of conservatives demanded the U.S. government place tighter guardrails on artificial intelligence, voicing concern that “unelected elites” could wield undue control over it. 

More than 60 people affiliated with President Donald Trump, including former senior adviser Steve Bannon, urged the White House to mandate an executive review of the most powerful AI models before they’re released, Axios reported. It comes after Google, Microsoft, Elon Musk’s xAI, and other major technology companies agreed to hand the government early access to their most advanced AI models for national security reviews before they are released to the public.
