Sara Jacobs argues Congress should balance AI safety and innovation to build trusted American systems.
Quiver AI Summary
Sara Jacobs outlines AI priorities: Rep. Sara Jacobs said in a Newsweek op-ed that Congress has “misdiagnosed” competition with China over artificial intelligence. She argued that U.S. policy should focus not only on model development, but also on societal impacts, deployers, and safety guardrails.
Jacobs says trust matters in competition: Jacobs said the U.S. is leading in frontier AI and computing infrastructure, while China is gaining ground in adoption. She said America’s advantage is building “systems that people trust more and would rather use,” rather than simply moving faster.
Background on her work: The release says Jacobs has worked on AI safety issues in Congress and has backed several AI-related bills. It also says she helped pass legislation limiting the use of AI to autonomously launch nuclear weapons and strengthening oversight of Pentagon AI use.
