Collier, Kevin. “Senator Introduces Bill to Limit AI Use by Military.” NBC News, 17 Mar. 2026, www.nbcnews.com/tech/security/senator-introduces-bill-draw-red-lines-ai-use-military-rcna263905. Accessed 17 Mar. 2026.
This article from NBC summarizes key information from the bill introduced by Michigan senator, Elissa Slotkin.
“The bill seeks to codify two existing Defense Department guidelines into law: that AI cannot autonomously decide to kill a target and that the technology cannot be used to help the military conduct mass surveillance on Americans. It would also ban the use of the technology for launching or detonating a nuclear weapon.”
Senator Slotkin also commented on the recent government split from the AI company Anthropic, saying, “…her legislation could have headed off that split.”
While NBC’s article is rather brief in this report, we will have to stay tuned for more updates about this bill and other propositions for AI regulations.
