Defining an AI Kill Switch Is Hard, But Necessary

A Dark Reading report covers the proposed 'AI Kill Switch Act,' bipartisan U.S. legislation from Reps. Ted Lieu and Nathaniel Moran that would require developers of advanced AI systems to maintain the technical capability to throttle, suspend, or shut down their agents, report loss-of-control incidents to DHS, and face penalties up to $20 million per day.
