Elissa Slotkin and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand are leading efforts to include AI guardrails in the 2027 National Defense Authorization Act, pushing for a ban on the use of AI in lethal actions, nuclear launches, and domestic surveillance without human authorization.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>National Security vs. Ethical Risks<\/strong>: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth supports the rapid adoption of AI for national security, while critics argue that the lack of ethical guardrails poses severe risks.
