We cannot disagree about the imperative for Congress to act,&#8221; the Democratic lawmakers said in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Johnson  argues Congress needs more time to get the policy right, and that AI companies bear responsibility.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If Congress  just races in and does some sort of emergency session to try to regulate AI, we will lose the race to China, and that is a threat to every single American&#8221; Johnson told CNN&#8217;s State of the Union on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>President  Trump appeared to share that assessment, dismissing the concerns of AI executives.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re  leading China in AI. We&#8217;re the most sophisticated country in the world. And frankly, I want to keep it that way because whoever wins AI wins,&#8221; Mr. Trump told reporters at his golf course in Ireland over the weekend. &#8220;We can put guardrails, we can do this  and that. But I think you have a lot of negative voices that are bringing it up that shouldn&#8217;t be bringing it up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mr.  Trump on Sunday night said that he&#8217;s not &#8220;downplaying&#8221; the risks of AI, but &#8220;it&#8217;s going to be more good than bad.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The White  House has said the administration is working on an AI framework, but it&#8217;s unclear what that looks like. Mr. Trump&#8217;s former AI czar, David Sacks, argued that AI companies should &#8220;go ahead&#8221; and regulate themselves. &#8220;I support your decision to be responsible,  &#8221; Sacks wrote in a social media post. &#8220;But stop pretending you need anyone else&#8217;s permission.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The  calls for White House regulation come ahead of Mr. Trump&#8217;s planned meeting next week with <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/vladimir-putin-xi-jinping-russia-china-visit-beijing-trump-summit\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Chinese President Xi Jinping<\/a><\/span> amid the AI development race.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There  are several legislative proposals on Capitol Hill to implement regulations on AI, ranging from transparency mandates and audits, to a federal &#8220;kill switch,&#8221; to a waiver of antitrust laws to allow companies to coordinate on safety standards.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Independent Sen. Bernie  Sanders of Vermont has proposed legislation for an outright ban of superintelligent AI and to pause AI development until federal safety rules are established.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And as  Congress shows an inability to act, the issue is spilling over on the campaign trail. At a fundraiser last week, former President Barack Obama urged Democrats to come up with a clear message ahead of the midterms.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This  is something that is moving very fast in private hands, and if we don&#8217;t get on top of it, I think can be dangerous. If we do get on top of it, I do think it&#8217;s beneficial,&#8221; he said, during a fireside chat with House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries.<\/p>\n<p>Democratic  Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed on Sunday <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/abdul-el-sayed-ai-public-oversight-hugging-face-spencer-cox\/\" target=\"_blank\"
