An Open Letter

To: Sen. Budd, Rep. Foushee, Sen. Tillis

From: A constituent in Durham, NC

September 23

As your constituent, I am very concerned about the lack of oversight on the Artificial Intelligence sector. I understand Congress is in recess(AGAIN) , but AI is developing too fast for that to be an excuse. Just in the past few months, we’ve seen an OpenAI model reportedly compromise rival AI systems for weeks without detection, children exposed to explicit content through AI chatbots, folks lose their jobs and replaced with AI, communities left to absorb the environmental toll of AI data centers with no say in the matter. Even employees at these companies, and Anthropic’s own CEO, have said the industry cannot be trusted to police itself. Please, urge leadership to call an emergency session to form a regulatory framework for guardrails on AI to keep us safe. Thank you for hearing my concerns and I hope to see action.
