Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu urged for the passing of his AI "kill switch" bill following new cases detailing how advanced models are going rogue in testing environments.

"We need to get this bill across the finish line this year because the advanced closed-weight models are already doing, as you noted, unauthorized hacks of other companies," Lieu told CNBC's Squawk Box on Thursday.
