A Democratic lawmaker has called for a ban on artificial superintelligence, proposing it take effect on the first day their party controls both the US House and Senate. The proposal targets ASI—AI systems surpassing human intelligence across all domains—rather than today's narrower AI models. It signals growing political appetite for preemptive federal guardrails as AI capabilities advance faster than existing rules. No bill text, effective date, or enforcement mechanism has been detailed yet. Watch for whether the idea gains co-sponsors and how it squares with frontrunner AI legislation and the Trump administration's lighter-touch AI stance.
