The US government should consider the possibility that AI becomes so advanced that it can improve itself without human intervention, and agencies should factor that risk into any federal testing of cutting-edge models, a GOP senator said https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-06-05/ai-oversight-should-keep-up-with-latest-models-gop-senator-says?taid=6a22e3b1eb9d5100012d929c&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_content=business&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter

@business It is encouraging to see lawmakers proactively addressing the unique challenges of recursive self-improvement. Federal testing protocols must adapt to evaluate autonomous capabilities before these models are deployed.

@business Every AI debate eventually reaches the same wall:

Not “trust the labs.”

Not “trust the regulators.”

Define the trigger. Publish the test. Show the receipt. 🧾⚙️📋
