Slotkin Introduces Bill to Codify Military AI Red Lines: No Autonomous Kill Decisions, No Mass Surveillance

Sen. Slotkin introduced legislation to codify two existing DOD AI guidelines into law: AI cannot autonomously decide to kill a target, and AI cannot conduct mass surveillance on Americans. The bill also bans AI for launching nuclear weapons. The legislation directly responds to the Anthropic-Pentagon dispute by establishing durable statutory constraints rather than leaving military AI rules to ad hoc company-by-company negotiations that shift with each administration.
