The California governor, Gavin Newsom, issued a mandate(指令；授权) to create an “AI kill-switch”; New York’s governor, Kathy Hochul, is similarly exploring the possibility of having “AI kill-switches”; and Senator Bernie Sanders and Congressman Greg Casar introduced legislation(立法；法规) to “ban artificial superintelligence”.
加州州长加文·纽森下令设立“AI紧急关停开关”；纽约州州长凯西·霍楚尔同样在探讨设置“AI关停开关”的可能；参议员伯尼·桑德斯和众议员格雷格·卡萨尔则提出立法，要“禁止人工超级智能”。
