What happened
The NSA is already spending billions of dollars to test advanced AI models, mostly on computing power, according to The Washington Sun. Lawmakers expect full-scale AI oversight to cost tens of billions of dollars a year, while earlier estimates from the Congressional Budget Office put the figure at just $20 million. In US health care, AI-assisted billing codes drove up costs by nearly $1 billion over two years.
