Stopping A.I. From Destroying America with Congresswoman Sara Jacobs

A.I. already plays a role in so many aspects of our lives and lately, the negatives of A.I. have far outweighed the positives. Just ask a recent college graduate who's applied to hundreds of jobs and hasn't received a single response. While more companies have been using A.I. to scan resumes, the big issue is we don't know if these A.I. systems are breaking fair employment laws or showing any bias when fielding candidates. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, Congresswoman Sara Jacobs (D-CA), returns to talk about how her A.I. regulation bill, which has bipartisan support in Congress, would give the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission additional tools to prevent A.I. systems from breaking the law. Our conversation with Congresswoman Jacobs doesn't just touch upon on A.I. guardrails. It's Congress's inability to fully understand the impact A.I. is having on the American electorate and how to keep up with and respond to this technology as it changes rapidly. While states like California have done a better job at regulating A.I., President Donald Trump has also been doing the bidding of the A.I. industry to override states' ability to take action. We also have a misguided fixation on trying to out-China China in the A.I. arms race. Congresswoman Jacobs argues that when Democrats retake the House in 2026 midterms, they will have a significant opportunity to future proof the government and push through A.I. protections that have a real impact.  We also take the time to discuss FISA reforms and enjoy seeing clowns like Nancy Mace and Spencer Pratt lose their primaries.  Download the Find Out Social App: App Store: https://apple.co/48Jan4F Google Play Store: https://bit.ly/FOSocialGooglePlay 👕 *Merch* made in the USA & union-made: https://findoutpodcast.com 📬 Subscribe to bonus content: https://findoutpodcast.substack.com 📱 Follow us everywhere: @FindOutPodcast 📣 Share this episode & tag us #FindOutPodcast 📥 Send us feedback and tips: hello@findoutpodcast.com Learn more about your ad choices.
