House Speaker Mike Johnson met with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman at the U.S. Capitol on Thursday to discuss what kind of role Congress has to play in legislating on artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n

\u2018It was a very good meeting,\u2019 Johnson told reporters afterward. \u2018We talked about where we are with regard to the approach of Congress to AI.\u2019<\/p>\n

He said they had a \u2018very thoughtful discussion\u2019 about how the Senate and House can forge a bipartisan path forward.<\/p>\n

\u2018There\u2019s unlimited potential [in] AI, but we also all agree, and Sam agrees, that there are some dangers as well. And so there\u2019s a role that Congress needs to play in figuring all that out, and we\u2019re in the process of doing that,\u2019 Johnson said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Altman would not go into specifics about what they discussed when asked by Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019m grateful for how much he cares about the issue and excited to see what the legislative process will do,\u2019 he said of the meeting.<\/p>\n

\u2018It was a sort of pretty high level meeting, just about trying to balance this sort of tremendous upside and figure out how to mitigate the risk but make sure that the U.S. does really great here,\u2019 Altman added.<\/p>\n

Johnson did not answer a shouted question from Fox News Digital on Friday morning about whether he had any follow-up plans on AI after the meeting.<\/p>\n

The meeting came a day after the top Republican and top Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee announced a bipartisan working group to look at the impact of AI on the finance industry.<\/p>\n

\u2018The rapid advance of artificial intelligence technology holds immense promise to transform society and our economy for the better, but it also comes with risks,\u2019 Chairman Patrick McHenry, R-N.C., said. \u2018The Working Group will explore this technology\u2019s potential, specifically its adoption in our financial system. It will also find ways to leverage artificial intelligence to foster a more inclusive financial system, while establishing the U.S. as the world leader in AI development and terms of use.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ranking member Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., said the group would \u2018investigate the ways in which this technology may embed historic inequities in the financial services and housing markets through the use of data that reflect underlying bias or discrimination.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
