美国国会进步党团主席、得克萨斯州第35选区众议员Greg Casar与众议院金融服务委员会资深成员、加利福尼亚州第43选区众议员Maxine Waters共同发起了一项决议,旨在警告人工智能相关资产泡沫带来的经济风险 1。该决议的核心立场是明确反对在AI泡沫破裂时,利用纳税人资金对受影响的大型科技公司或其高管实施救助 1。发起人引用数据指出,目前与AI相关的公司持有数万亿美元债务,且股市市盈率已接近20世纪90年代科技泡沫的峰值水平 1。
决议通过对比2008年金融危机中银行获救而数百万美国人失去工作、家园和储蓄的历史教训,提出了具体的政策要求 1。Casar和Waters主张拒绝向导致公司破产的高管发放“金色降落伞”奖金,并强调应追究欺诈行为者的责任,追回其非法所得 1。除了针对科技公司的限制措施外,决议还呼吁联邦政府采取替代方案以保护普通民众,包括通过增加就业、加强失业救济、保障养老金以及启用自动稳定器等手段来缓冲经济衰退的影响 1。
这项决议得到了多位民主党议员的联署支持 1。此外,多个民间组织也对该倡议表示赞同,背书团体包括美国教师联合会(American Federation of Teachers)和美国经济自由项目(American Economic Liberties Project)等 1。
U.S. Representative Greg Casar, chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, and Rep. Maxine Waters, ranking member of the House Financial Services Committee, have introduced a resolution warning of the economic risks posed by an artificial intelligence asset bubble. 1 The measure explicitly opposes any taxpayer-funded rescues for large technology companies or their executives should the AI market collapse. 1
The resolution highlights that AI-related firms currently hold trillions of dollars in debt, while stock price-to-earnings ratios are approaching levels last seen during the dot-com boom of the 1990s. 1 Drawing parallels to the 2008 financial crisis, when banks received government assistance while millions of Americans lost jobs, homes, and savings, the legislators argue against repeating such mistakes. 1 Specifically, the proposal rejects emergency loans or direct capital injections, bans "golden parachute" payments to executives whose mismanagement led to company failures, and mandates the clawback of illicit gains. 1
Instead of bailing out corporations, the resolution calls for federal actions to protect workers, retirees, and low-income communities from potential recession impacts. 1 Proposed alternatives include increasing employment opportunities, strengthening unemployment insurance, safeguarding pensions, and enhancing automatic stabilizers to directly support ordinary citizens. 1 The initiative has secured endorsements from multiple civil society organizations, including the American Federation of Teachers and the American Economic Liberties Project. 1
