This bill creates a new federal Department of Artificial Intelligence to halt and police the most powerful AI. It would temporarily pause advanced AI development until safety rules are in place, require licenses and government approval before release, and ban AI seen as able to outsmart humans or help cause major harm. Violators could face prison, job bans, and asset seizure. Supporters say it could reduce extreme risks, but it would sharply slow AI research and industry growth.
