A.I. and robotics “will displace millions of workers,” Bernie Sanders says. “Are we prepared for that? No, we are not.” And the consequences will go beyond that: “This is re-altering the brains of our kids,” Sanders continues. “Reading skills are declining, writing skills declining. Cognitive capabilities are declining. A.I. will only exacerbate that.” On a new episode of #RadioHour, Sanders discusses the bill he introduced with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calling for a nationwide moratorium on data centers.
