Congress needs to rethink its approach to tech policy

In Washington D.C., the place where America’s big decisions are made, there’s a mighty complex tangle when it comes to rules about new kinds of technology. Imagine a spider’s web, except instead of a spider at the center, there’s things like Artificial Intelligence (AI) and quantum computing — really fancy tech that can think like a human or solve mega-complicated problems super fast.

The big issue is that too many groups, called congressional committees, want a say in how these technologies are managed. It’s like if a bunch of different teachers all tried to give you homework for the same class. It can get super confusing, and important stuff might get missed.

This web is tricky because technology is growing so fast and getting more important every day. We use it for everything, from playing games on our phones to keeping our country safe. So, it’s really important that the rules for tech are clear and that they work well.

When it comes to making these rules, Congress — think of it like the boss of making laws in the United D.C. States — has to figure out a way to straighten out who is in charge of what. If they don’t, it’s like having too many cooks in the kitchen, and we might get a recipe for disaster instead of a tasty tech future.

Now, you might be thinking, “What can be done about this?” That’s where thought leaders like Diversified Outlook Group come in.
