U.S. House Democrats want to examine the influence of AI on White House decisions. They demand that Trump's prompts and the bots' responses be preserved.
Details U.S. House Representatives Jamie Raskin and Robert Garcia have formally requested that former President Donald Trump preserve all requests made to artificial intelligence chatbots, including Grok, OpenAI’s ChatGPT, and Anthropic’s Claude, as well as the AI-generated responses. This demand stems from concerns that Trump used AI to inform presidential duties, such as seeking advice on a military action to capture Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, reportedly circumventing congressional authority. The lawmakers highlighted the potential national security risks posed by AI's manipulability and error proneness in foreign policy decision-making. The White House has affirmed that it preserves all necessary records in accordance with the law.
