Summary
Jon Ossoff used a Sunday rally in Athens to call for inspectors inside leading AI labs and a new international treaty governing the technology.
The Georgia Democrat said AI is advancing faster than safeguards, urging a president to move swiftly on lab oversight, bioterrorism defenses and legislation from Congress.
Washington is already debating stronger AI guardrails, with Ossoff joining a broader push over oversight, power use, data centers and other national implications of the industry.
Congress now has about 50 days before the midterms, tightening the window for any new AI legislation as lawmakers juggle funding fights and other national security votes.
