Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
The Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act of 2026 requires anyone who discovers an artificial superintelligence system or a related precursor system to report it to the Secretary of Artificial Intelligence within 24 hours. The bill prohibits federal agencies from funding activities that violate its core restrictions on advanced AI development, though it creates an exception allowing the Department of Artificial Intelligence to use federal funds for defensive cybersecurity research using specifically defined AI systems. These provisions work together to establish immediate transparency requirements and control federal spending on AI development while carving out limited exceptions for national security purposes.
