On Wednesday’s News Briefing, The Morning Update host Jeff Chidester tackles the growing hysteria surrounding Artificial Intelligence, expressing growing concern over policymakers and constituents seemingly losing their collective minds.

Rather than slamming the brakes on innovation or handing over the keys to massive government oversight, Chidester argues for a balanced, rational path forward—one that avoids knee-jerk regulation while responsibly seizing the technological opportunities ahead.
