Exclusive: AI's revolution comes with risks, Sen. McCormick says
""Energy demand is going to triple in the next 15 years," McCormick said, and Congress needs to ensure those costs don't trickle down to Americans."
""We have to lead the innovation because the consequences of China being the leader in AI could reshape the world," McCormick told Allen."
"McCormick has also cautioned that AI can be disruptive to society, driving up energy costs, eliminating jobs and presenting new ethical challenges."
McCormick stated that while Americans have more disposable income under President Trump, rising costs in housing, energy, and healthcare diminish consumer confidence. He emphasized the need for Congress to manage energy costs as demand is expected to triple in the next 15 years. McCormick introduced a bill to promote liquid cooling technology for data centers to reduce utility bills. He also highlighted the importance of leading in AI innovation to avoid falling behind China, while acknowledging the potential societal disruptions caused by AI.
