News Poetry ( AI debate hits Congress)

In government offices artificial and human minds collide,
As OpenAI through IBM is evolving every day new,
AI emerges as alarms are sounded Congress-wide,
A technological storm of destruction or a futuristic view?

In the halls of Judiciary appointed is a probing subcommittee,
While Homeland Security convenes in a separate space,
All explore the realm of AI and it’s a matter of great pity,
To discuss AI’s role in the government’s political race..

Altman, the CEO is just a tiny voice in the crowd,
The White House emphasized with the profound decree,
as he, met with Biden, but Biden failed to speak clearly, just loud
about Ethics in AI’s regulation and responsibility.

Mindful of the risks ahead Altman stands before all,
OpenAI pledges responsibility and care,
With a touch of fear, he embraces the rise and the fall,
Moving forward, the risks, do we dare to bear?

Yet cautious voices rise and urge restraint,
A letter is penned demanding a pause,
Elon Musk and others, their concerns they acquaint,
For society’s sake they ask for a safeguarding clause.

Altman finds agreement in this and acknowledges the plea,
The letter, though is not the ideal route, he conveys,
Caution and rigor in AI’s journey all are encouraged to see,
safety must remain paramount in AI’s vast maze.

Balance in progress shapes the future and it is bold,
AI though is a double-edged sword and is infinitely vast,
Debate and introspection benefits us in the dangers untold,
Humanity’s destiny is now hanging on our every task.

A future yet uncertain will soon irrevocably unfold.
Let Congress and wise minds in unison converge,
The debate rages on, as AI takes us in its hold.
As we shape this future, who really knows what might emerge?
